Qantas Airlines and Perth Airport have agreed to relocate to the new Perth Airport terminal and enhance their network of routes.
Perth Airport is investing approximately 3 billion Australian dollars in the construction of a new terminal and a parallel runway, part of a 5 billion Australian dollar infrastructure investment plan, marking the largest private infrastructure development in Perth’s history. The new terminal is aimed to boost tourism and increase travel options from Australia to Asia.
Following the completion of the new terminal in 2031, Qantas Airlines and Jetstar Airlines will move to the new terminal in the airport’s central district, facilitating easier transfers between international and domestic flights. By the time of the opening, an additional 4.4 million seats per year will be available, and new routes to destinations such as Auckland and Johannesburg will be launched. The use of a new parallel runway will commence in 2028.
Additionally, Qantas Airlines will construct a new technical hangar in the airport’s central district. Perth Airport is also investing in the refurbishment of the current terminal and renovations to accommodate ultra-long-distance flights scheduled for 2026, enhancing its capacity. Jetstar’s domestic flights will relocate to Terminal 2 starting from September.
