Terminal guide

You can get to and from the airport via shuttle bus, taxis, rental car or your own vehicle.

We open at 4.00am

We close at 10:30pm

We are, however, flexible and we adjust our opening hours to suit our arriving and departing flights where necessary.

Please note, we are unable to accommodate travelers overnight in the terminal.

Check-in desks for all airlines and self-service kiosks are located in the middle of the terminal building. 

Please refer to the map below and the Flights page to confirm your flight arrival gate and airline baggage carousel. Information screens can also be found inside the terminal building. 

If you have oversized baggage, we recommend you contact your airline and ask them about requirements before you travel. Once at the airport ask the friendly staff at your airline’s information desk and they’ll help you.

There are multiple bathroom amenities located within the terminal building. Please follow the signs to locate those nearest to you. Want to freshen up? Personal hygiene and basic medicinal products are available from ‘Runway News’ newsagency in the Departure Lounge.

For Gate 2 – 6 arrivals: head into the departure lounge or use the facilities in the Gate 1 arrivals hall.

You can check our flights page to determine which gate your flight will arrive through.

This workshop is signposted and can be found outside our Arrivals hall, on the right as you exit.

The facility is undercover, empty boxes are to be returned to the Oversized Baggage area or disposed of thoughtfully.

If you need to purchase a bike box prior to travel, contact your airline for more information.

We love Tassie’s fresh air – we think it’s one of our greatest gifts!
To help preserve this and improve our guests experience our terminal forecourt is to be kept smoke free.

If you wish to smoke there are two designated smoking areas – these can be found outside the southern end of the terminal (follow signs on terminal building) and at the far end of the drop off/pick up area. Both areas are clearly signed and equipped with cigarette bins.

Cigarette butts are the most littered item in Australia. Butts littered on streets get washed into stormwater drains and into waterways where they leach toxic chemicals such as cadmium, lead and zinc. Butts are also commonly mistaken for food by marine life. Please keep Tassie beautiful and put your butts in the bins provided.
