About Queensland Airports Limited

Queensland Airports Limited (QAL) is Australia’s largest regional airport operator, proudly owning and operating Gold Coast, Townsville, Mount Isa and Longreach airports. Spanning from the southern border of Queensland to the Far North and west to the outback, our airports are a vital connector for communities, businesses and industries across the state.

In FY25 more than 7.9 million passengers travelled through QAL's airports, linking regional Queensland, the Gold Coast and northern New South Wales with the rest of Australia and the world. Our airports play a crucial role connecting communities, facilitating economic growth, advocating social inclusion and supporting key sectors in our region including tourism, trade, education, medical and emergency response services.  

QAL directly employs around 200 people with our operations supporting thousands more jobs in aviation, tourism, freight and related industries. Together our airports contribute billions of dollars each year to Queensland’s economy, driving growth, investment and opportunity across the regions we serve.

We are committed to delivering for the communities in which we operate, recognising both the economic strength and the social benefits that come from a connected Queensland.
