A man who hid methamphetamine inside two neck pillows has been arrested at Wellington Airport.
The 49-year-old man was carrying 1.5 kilograms of meth which had a street value of around $1.5 million.
He had travelled from Hong Kong via Sydney.
Customs investigations manager Maurice O'Brien said they were successful in identifying the man and seizing the drugs.
"Our intelligence-led approach has removed another large amount of methamphetamine from the drug supply chain preventing substantial harm to our communities."
