Spot the difference

I have tried to organise tickets for my son and his family to get from Kaitaia to Auckland, to catch flights back to Spain. I contacted Air NZ, and it is $339 person, but only $199 from Kerikeri.

Calculated as dollars per kilometre, it is very expensive for the slight difference between Kerikeri and Kaitaia. Is this designed to reduce usage of Kaitaia airport?
