Airport - Christchurch International Airport is a major transit airport for international and domestic travellers. It is located 12 kilometres to the northwest of the city centre, in the suburb of Harewood. There is a regular public bus service to the city center. There is also a privately-run 8-passenger "5 dollar bus" which runs between the Square and airport about every 15-20 minutes during the day.
Shopping - Locals tend to shop at the many suburban malls, the largest of which are Westfield Riccarton, Northlands and The Palms in Shirley. Manchester Street has an interesting collection of antique shops including the three floors of Smith's Bookshop. The Warehouse Common throughout New Zealand, and with several stores in Christchurch, these big red stores contain an extremely wide variety of products including clothing, tools, camping equipment, toys, music, etc. Their motto is "where everyone gets a bargain" and this is definitely true. While you might not always find the top quality brands here, the prices are very reasonable. A great place to go to get everything you need under one roof.
