These days, we are all more than familiar with the power of connection. While linking up via Zoom and Facetime got us through the past two years, real connection is what matters. And Brisbane Airport offers award-winning connections for us all.
With the tagline ‘We’re Better Connected’, Brisbane Airport (BNE) knows all about the power of connection. Not just because of their 22 airlines that make hugs possible with your family and friends around the world.
They do it, also, through the connections they hold within the airport. From the staff they employ, the services they implement, and the airline partners that rely on all they do.
Connect everywhere with your loved ones

Want to catch up with your uni mate that moved to Singapore so you can hit the hawker markets and Sentosa Island together? Singapore Airlines can make that happen with their daily flights through BNE.
How about a family reunion in Port Vila, thanks to Air Vanuatu’s thrice weekly flights? Tankia tumas (thank you very much) for making that possible, BNE!
Maybe you and your S/O are ready to rent that campervan and road trip New Zealand? With Air New Zealand’s daily BNE flights to multiple destinations across Aotearoa, you can!
Connect at the terminal

We don’t know about you, but we get a little teary at airports. We’re super hyped to leave for our adventure (of course!), but get all the feels being in a place filled with reunions, love, and hope.
Whatever part of that welcome back banner or farewell hug you’re included in, knowing that the people around you are almost as excited as you is heart-warming. The BNE crew take pride in embedding care in the work they do, whether it’s as a baggage handler, customer service agent, or Jan in accounts.
We’re better reconnected

Sure, travel has taken a little longer to bounce back than we would have liked, with some countries still holding onto their pandemic policies like a kid holding onto their blankie at night. But you can guess who’s been ready to get those routes back up and flying ASAP?
Brisbane Airport, you’ve guessed it! While routes like Air Canada’s BNE-YVR took a required breather, they’re already back at BNE and have just announced they will return to their 2019 levels next year! That’s a whopping 109,000 one-way seats to connect to the snow, the scenery, and the squishy hugs of your loved ones.
The HQ team at BNE have also been busy locking in new routes, including an exciting scoop, connecting Aussies through BNE to San Francisco with United Airlines.
Domestically, Virgin have reopened their sunshine-to-coffee route (BNE-MEL), including the return of fast-track security for eligible customers.

Wow, while some of us got hooked on K-Drama on Netflix during COVID, the team at BNE did something far more fruitful with their time! Awks.
Connect in record time

Did you know that Brisbane Airport offers speedy connections for connecting flights?
With fast transfer times between domestic and international terminals, travelling via BNE means less time stressing about making the next leg of your trip, and more time sipping a flat white at one of the 12 cafés across the terminals.
Not only are the transfer times shorter than at your average airport, but there are also several complimentary transfer bus services between terminals. Take the. free Skygate Centre, AIRPARK, and DFO buses (erm, a free bus to outlet shopping makes you almost want a travel delay, right?).
Brisbane Airport generally performs better than other large Australian airports. This includes with its check-in queues, security lines, hold-ups at immigration and other fun things you would rather not be waiting on when duty-free shopping awaits.
Award-winning connections
Want to know whether travellers really think BNE is a top airport? It’s in the awards, mate! Once again, Brisbane Airport took out Skytrax’s Australia/Pacific Best Airport and Best Airport Staff awards!
Millions of passengers vote in the Skytrax annual awards, proving that ‘We’re Better Connected’ is an ethos more than a tagline. BTW, this is the 8th time they’ve won the Best Airport award and the 5th time for Best Airport Staff! Congrats!
Connect better
