Speaking to The Courier-Mail this week, Gert-Jan de Graaff said Brisbane Airport – which currently has links to 35 international destinations – is looking to increase its Asian connectivity, including to Thailand, China and India, as well as potential services to South America through Santiago.
The ATD, which is designed to supplant the paper Incoming Passenger Card, will be available to passengers arriving on the first international flight to WSI – an Air New Zealand service from Auckland – on 26 October.
Around 30 tonnes of engineered timber, also called glulam or GLT, is being used for the terminal’s raking roof frames, which the airport says “reinforces the terminal’s connection to the landscape that surrounds it” and saves around 40 tonnes of carbon compared to steel and concrete.
The Network Integration Program Alliance, comprising CPB Contractors and SMEC, will carry out the works to turn Sunshine Station into a “transport superhub” that will link the airport line into the rest of Melbourne’s suburban train network.
From 15 December 2027, the Gulf carrier will operate three 777-300ER flights per week between WSI and Doha, expanding to daily flights by the end of 2028. Flights will arrive into WSI at 11:45pm, departing for Doha at 4:10pm the following day.
Melbourne Airport has released new mock-ups of its soon-to-be-expanded T2 international terminal, as passenger numbers continue to climb.
