Gold Coast Airport

If you have never visited Gold Coast Airport before you may be pleasantly surprised by the straightforward layout. Despite being Australia’s third fastest growing airport, the facility is relatively small compared to that of our larger city airports, and the complex consists of only one single passenger terminal for both international and domestic flights. Gold Coast Airport is well organised and easy to navigate with plenty of kerbside stopping areas directly in front of the terminal entrance.

Parking is in ample supply with three dedicated onsite car parks to choose from and plenty of disabled parking bays located close to the entrance. Inside the terminal, Gold Coast Airport boasts many great entertainment features including an array of dining and shopping opportunities as well as modern transit amenities and free terminal Wi-Fi. And perhaps its best feature of all is its privileged location. Be sure to choose a window seat on board the plane, as take-off and landing offer incredible birds-eye views of the stunning eastern Australian coastline.

Brisbane

The city of Brisbane is the most populated city in the state of Queensland and the third most populated city in the entire country. Nestled upon the Brisbane River and adorned with numerous skyscrapers, the city of Brisbane will steal your heart with its metropolitan infrastructure and simultaneously laid-back disposition. As with any major city, Brisbane offers a multitude of activities, entertainment attractions and shopping opportunities and exploring them all will take some time. A few must-see attractions include the riverside botanical gardens, King George square, fortitude Valley, Queensland Art Gallery and the Queensland performing arts centre, just to name a few. With Hughes, you can see Brisbane in comfort. Simply let us know where you would like to be dropped off, or picked up, and allow us to handle the rest.
