Auckland International Airport (NZE:AIA, ASX:AIA) said a distinctive aircraft parking area known as the tennis courts has been closed to aircraft as construction of its new domestic jet terminal expands onto the airfield, according to a Wednesday statement by the airport.

The airport said the site is being transformed into a 240-meter aircraft pier that will house 12 jet gates connecting travelers directly to their planes.

"Closing this section of airfield allows us to extend construction to where domestic jet aircraft will eventually park at the new pier," Chief Infrastructure Officer Murray Burt said.

Construction of the new domestic jet pier is well underway with aircraft operations relocated, the statement added.

The airport's New Zealand shares fell past 1% in recent Wednesday trade, while its Australian shares dropped 1%.
