There are 3 million reasons to transform Cairns Domestic Terminal into a state-of-the-art gateway to our region.

That's how many local, interstate and international visitors get their first impression of the region when passing through Cairns Domestic Terminal and that's why we are investing $200 million.

Current Changes

As the $200M Domestic Terminal Redevelopment at Cairns Airport progresses the public are advised of the following changes:

New Taxi Rank & Limousine Pick-Up Area

The new northern loop road is now operational and includes the new Taxi Rank and Limousine Pick-Up areas. (Click here or scroll down for Map.)

New Bus Pick-Up Areas

Common Check-In Area for All Airlines

Check-in for all Domestic airlines is in the spacious, state-of-the-art Common-Use Check-In Area at the southern (city) end of the Terminal.

Road Access

Vehicles can access the Public Carpark and the Public Drop-Off/Pick-Up Areas by taking the first turn left after the main roundabout at the intersection of Airport Avenue and Mick Borzi Drive. (Click here or scroll down for Map.)

Public Drop-Off/Pick-Up Areas

The Public Drop-Off Area is located opposite Check-In at the southern (city) end of the Domestic Terminal.

The Public Pick-Up Area is located at the centre of the Terminal. Vehicles can proceed directly into the Public Carpark from this area, exit the airport or proceed to the International Terminal or Rental Carpark.

Both the Pick-Up and Drop-Off Areas include a space for people with a disability.

There is also a temporary Public Pick-Up area for people with a disability located within the Airport Operations Centre car park. (Click here or scroll down for Map.)

Arriving Passengers

Passengers arrive either into Gates 18 - 22 located inside the Departures Lounge or Gate 1 adjacent to the interim Baggage Claim building. Check the Flight Information Display Screens for the arrival gate number of each flight.

Rental Car Offices & Returns

All rental car offices are now located in the interim Baggage Claim facility.

Access to the Domestic Rental Car Park and the Airport Operations Centre is via Mick Borzi Drive, turn left just before the Intenational Terminal. (Click here or scroll down for Map)
