Almost as embarrassing as the lonely, outdoor, walk from the International to Domestic terminal at Auckland Airport (I know it's changing) following a [expletive] painted line🤦🏻♂️ It's not "quaint", it's shite and a terrible first impression The make do attitude needs to be yeeted into the sea, move on
