Hamilton Island Airport Шаблон:Airport codes, also known as Great Barrier Reef Airport, is a privately owned public use aerodrome and is the main airport on Hamilton Island. The airport is settled on mostly reclaimed land and is commercially served year-round by Jetstar, Virgin Australia and Qantas. Hamilton Island Airport handles flights from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

It opened in June 1984, with Ansett Australia having exclusive rights to serve the airport, as part of its 50% shareholding. Ansett initially operated services from Brisbane and Sydney with Boeing 737s. The 1,764 metre runway was capable of accommodating Boeing 747SPs.[1]

Ansett sold its shareholding to the BT Hotel Group in May 1998, allowing Qantas to begin to serve the airport.[2][3][4] The airport suffered heavily in September 2001 with the demise of Ansett Australia, which operated more heavily out of the airport than any other airline with flights to Cairns, Townsville, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide.[5]

In the year ending 30 June 2022 the airport handled 500,000 passengers.[6]
