Those wishing to fly but without a confirmed booking should contact their airline first
After two days of disruption, about 20,000 departed on overseas flight syesterday.
Auckland Airport hopes to get about 25,000 on departing international flights today.
Dozens were stranded overnight at the airport as all roads were cut off by flood waters.

“Our goal remains to get people home as soon as possible.”
