Please dispose of bike boxes thoughtfully. Bins are located near the bicycle service station. If you need to purchase a bike box prior to travel, contact your airline for more information.

Smoking

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 and forecourt are to be kept smoke free.

An undercover smoking area has been provided at the southern end of the Pick Up Drop Off lane for smoking, including all e-cigarettes, vaping devices and herbal cigarettes. This area is clearly signed and cigarette bins are provided.
