Jetstar is apologising to more than 170 passengers delayed for 13 hours on a flight from Melbourne to Christchurch.
The flight was diverted to Wellington just after midnight because of fog.
Jetstar spokeswoman Andrea Wait says a special flight was arranged to get the passengers to Christchurch on Saturday morning, but there was a problem with the pilot's accreditation for flying out of Wellington.
She says the airline has apologised to customers for the delay.
Wait says the passengers were accommodated in hotels overnight and compensated with meal and travel vouchers.
