Aviation Security Service

Aviation Security Service (AvSec) is the Government provider of aviation security in New Zealand, operating at our six major airports: Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Queenstown, Dunedin, and Invercargill.

As a safety regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority exists to enable safe flight for social connections, and economic benefit for New Zealand. We believe in keeping people safe and secure in the air, enabling participation in the aviation system, and making a difference to New Zealand aviation. We achieve this through regulatory oversight of the aviation industry and frontline security at our airports.
