Toowoomba Airport

Overview

Toowoomba Airport is one of Australia’s newest airports. Its construction began in 2012, and its first flight services commenced in 2014. The airport also has the recognition of being Australia’s first privately-funded public airport. Toowoomba Airport is located in Queensland’s Darling Downs region, about 20 kilometres west of the city of Toowoomba. There is much to discover around this rural area of southern Queensland, such as Table Top Mountain, the Darling Downs wine region and the Great Dividing Range.

Although Toowoomba Airport is young, it has already won several awards. It was named ‘AAA Large Regional Airport of the Year’ in 2015 and won the ‘AAA Innovation and Excellence Award’ in 2017.
