Speaking of Skybus, I take it to commute to the airport every Fri afternoon. The Dominion Road service is seriously delayed most of the time. There were several weeks when the xx:12 service was cancelled and I ended up waiting for half an hour at the bus stop for the xx:32 service.

The Mt Eden Road service seems more reliable.

I don't know how weekly commuters who work in Auckland CBD are managing this weekly trip to the airport. They have to endure CBD traffic in addition to the airport road traffic we are talking here.
