The fog which blanketed Hawke's Bay Airport for two days this week, causing flight delays, may descend on the region again today, MetService says.
Hawke's Bay Airport chief executive Nick Story said flights were cancelled due to fog from about 1pm on Tuesday to 2pm yesterday.
"There was obviously significant passenger disruption, however Air New Zealand appeared to be looking after their customers well and organised bus services to replace the cancelled flights.
"We could hear planes circling overhead during the period flights were cancelled, however they were unable to land due to the adverse weather conditions."
Among those who had their schedule disrupted by the fog was National List MP and Education Minister Hekia Parata. A spokeswoman said the minister was due to fly from Hawke's Bay to Auckland after her visit to the region about 5.20pm on Tuesday, but her flight was cancelled and she had to drive instead.
