Heavy fog over Auckland is causing disruptions to flights this morning.

According to the Auckland Airport website, 25 flights have now been cancelled.

All of the flights are domestic services to and from regional destinations, he said.

International flights are not affected.

Auckland Airport spokesperson Richard Llewellyn said it was hard to tell when the fog would lift.

"It is not as heavy as it has been this particular winter," he said. "It could get better, it could get worse. It's hard to tell."

Passengers are advised to check with their airline or the airport website for flight updates.
