Bundaberg Airport

The Bundaberg City Council owns and operates the Bundaberg Airport.

Visitors to Bundaberg arriving by air are greeted by the Air Terminal's clean and modern lines. More than 50 000 people pass through the terminal annually. Services to and from major centres and the Coral Isles leave daily as well as very popular local scenic flights.

The Bundaberg City Council has rentable land available for the construction of hangers. If you have any aviation industry related inquiries please direct them to the Corporate Services Department of the Bundaberg City Council.

The Bundaberg Airport will be home again to the biggest airshow in Queensland as it returns to our skies from 16th-17th July, 2005. The air show will include displays by formation aerobatic teams, military helicopters and jets, individual warbirds and much much more.

Bundaberg is serviced several times daily by regular Airline transport from Brisbane Airport, with the flight time approximately one hour. Lady Elliot Island pictured, is the only coral island on the great barrier reef with an airstrip. It's just a 25 minutes scenic flight from Bundaberg. Fly there or stay longer at the resort for a totally relaxing holiday.

Historical Note

Officially opened by the Minister for Customers, Hon. F.M. Forde, M.H.R. On Saturday, December 12th 1931. Late 1940 it was decided to develop the Bundaberg Aerodrome as a RAAF Flying Training School.

The Airport was used as a base for pilot training and for active missions against Japanese forces from 1941 to 1946 and catered for more than 1,000 service personnel. Department of Civil Aviation assumed full responsibility for Bundaberg Aerodrome on 31st July 1946. June 1967 the Dpt. Civil Aviation was raising the question of "Local Ownership". January 1974 Bundaberg City Council was still in strong opposition to "Local Ownership" of the Aerodrome.

July 1977 the grass runway was shortened by 448 metres and the main bitumen runway was narrowed from 150 to 100 feet.

June 1983 saw the Bundaberg City Council Unanimously adopt a resolution to take over ownership of the Bundaberg Aerodrome. (9th May 1986 the Hon. Peter Morris, MHR, Federal Minister of Aviation, officially opened the new terminal.
