Brisbane airport overview

Brisbane International Airport (BNE) has a big job to do, since it’s the only airport serving this city, a key portal to Australia’s famed Gold Coast. The sprawling airport – 15km (9 miles) from Brisbane – is laid out in a line stretching several miles from the Domestic Terminal to the Airport Village complex, with all terminal buildings connected by indispensable shuttle and rail services.

Flights to Brisbane International Airport are available from cities all over Australia, New Zealand and Asia, with additional service to several cities in the US, including Los Angeles. The most popular routes though, are the near-daily flights to Sydney, Melbourne, and Cairns.

Passengers flying into Brisbane will find it a welcoming introduction to Queensland, and a convenient gateway to the sunny beaches and sparkling waves of the Gold Coast.

  • How long is the flight to Brisbane?

    Flights from London to Brisbane: 22 hours 20 minutes. Flights from Manchester to Brisbane: 23 hours 30 minutes. Flights from Birmingham to Brisbane: 23 hours 10 minutes. Flights from Glasgow to Brisbane: 22 hours 20 minutes.

  • Which airlines operate flights to Brisbane?

    There are many airlines that provide cheap flights to Brisbane, most notably Etihad, British Airways, Qantas and Virgin Atlantic. There are a few others but these four are the major ones. As with any long-haul flights to Brisbane you might end up combining two airlines as the distance isn’t possible in one long slog. Deciding which airline is best purely comes down to the price of the flight tickets. If you are an executive member with any of them then it would make sense to redeem any points you have against cheap flights to Brisbane to make a saving. If you aren’t a member of any sort, make sure you sign up to be one before you secure your flight tickets as you’ll earn a wealth of points from the journey.

  • How to get from the airport to the city centre?

    Brisbane International Airport is only 15km away from the centre so it can be relatively easy to find your way there. One of the most common methods of travel is to jump on the Airtrain Rail Link. The train runs every 15 minutes and takes 20 minutes to arrive in downtown Brisbane. It runs every day and kids can travel for free. Adults can expect a fare of about A$15 each way. For one extra dollar you could opt for the bus. Coachtrans Australia meets all flights, whether domestic or international, and the extra dollar means you get a door-to-door service. This can be very appreciated after your long flights to Brisbane and you just want to crash at your hotel rather than find your way from the train station. Lastly you could decide on a taxi. While these aren’t the cheapest option they are rather handy due to being readily available and taking you exactly where you need to go. Fees are higher for late-night journeys so bare that in mind.

  • What does BNE mean?

    This is just an IATA (International Air Transport Association) code. IATA codes are used in aviation to identify and differentiate airports. That’s why a Brisbane Airport flight would often be abbreviated as a BNE flight.

  • What airport do you fly into for flights to Brisbane?

    Booking a flight to Brisbane (BNE) is your only option if you intend on flying to Brisbane. It is only a 7.7 mi journey from Brisbane to Brisbane’s city center.
