About  Cairns

About the Cairns Airport
Map of Cairns arirport

Cairns Airport is the main International airport serving not just the city of Cairns, but more so, the nearby holiday destination towns like Port Douglas. Just under 5 million passengers go through Cairns Airport every year.

Getting to the Cairns Airport

Given the distance from the CBD, getting to the airport should be relatively hassle-free. That said, we have compiled a list of ETA’s from the city’s surrounding suburbs, so you can plan your pick up time with accuracy. The ETA’s assume light traffic.

Depending on the traffic and the route you use, it will take you anywhere from ten to fifteen minutes to get from the city centre to the airport. This estimated time of arrival applies anywhere in the North Canberra district. From most areas in South Canberra, the estimated time of arrival is anywhere from fifteen to twenty minutes. Plan for a similar ETA if you’re transferring from Woden. If you’re coming from Belconnen, give yourself an allowance of about twenty-five to thirty minutes. The same applies for Weston Creek, Tuggeranong and Gungahlin.

Getting out of the Cairns Airport

There are several ways to get to the city from Cairns International Airport. You could use the city’s public transport system, take a taxi or a rental car. You could also use a shuttle service or a private transfer service like ours.

CairnsTaxis, Ride-Booking (Uber & Need a Ride) as well as other bus transfer and limousine companies including Excellence Coaches and Cairns Bus Charters.
