About Us:

It was the birthplace of Qantas’ first international flight, launched the first international mail service to England, facilitated the first west-east Pacific crossing by Sir Charles Kingsford-Smith, and General MacArthur used it as an air force base for US, British and Australian troops during World War II.

Archerfield Airport Corporation is embracing a renaissance of new aviation technology and has made strides in modernising facilities for aircraft operations and logistics providers. Recent developments include a $20 million full reconstruction of the main runway, taxiway and apron parking area, plus a new logistics estate for warehousing and storage facilities, attracting new businesses and operators.
