About Gold Coast Airport

Gold Coast Airport (OOL), formerly known as Coolangatta Airport, is an international airport located at the southern end of the Gold Coast, south of Brisbane, and within the South East Queensland agglomeration. The airport lies between the border of Queensland and New South Wales but operates on QLD time all year round. 

The third-fastest growing airport in Australia, Gold Coast Airport welcomes 6.5 million passengers a year, through its dual International/Domestic Terminal. After the airport was privatized by the Federal Government in 1998, the QAL Group has since invested close to $300 million in infrastructure improvements, redeveloping the main passenger terminal and extending the runway. 

From servicing only three destinations in 1998, Gold Coast Airport now facilitates more than 420 flights per week to 21 destinations across Australia, New Zealand, and Asia. Domestically, GCA offers direct flights to Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Perth, Newcastle, Townsville, and Cairns, via Qantas, QantasLink, Airnorth, Tigerair Australia, Jetstar Airways, and Virgin Australia. Direct international services include Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Queenstown, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, and Tokyo, via AirAsia X, Scoot, and Air New Zealand.
