Sounds Air

Sounds Air is a privately owned New Zealand regional carrier flying under the codes S8 and SDA, linking the lower North Island and the top of the South Island across Cook Strait. Its network is built around Wellington, with services connecting Picton, Blenheim, Nelson and Paraparaumu, alongside charter and scenic work elsewhere in the country. There are no long-haul or international routes, and the airline is not part of a global alliance. Operations use a small fleet of single-engine turboprop light aircraft, and the seat maps here cover the Cessna light aircraft configuration you are most likely to fly.
