Angry passengers have given Auckland Airport chief executive Carrie Hurihanganui a grilling over the response to widespread flooding that forced its closure overnight.
Hurihanganui was approached by passengers after concluding a stand-up with journalists where she announced the airport's domestic terminal would reopen from midday.
"I'm not going to attack anybody but my problem is the communication," one passenger said.
Another passenger told Hurihanganui how they had to go "into an unsanitary area and being forced to rebook our own seats that we already paid for".
Watch the moment above.
