Canberra International Airport services the Australian Capital Territory.  It originally was an old airstrip that was built in the 1920’s.  In the late 1930’s the RAAF (Royal Australian Air Force) controlled the airport with a section designated for civil aviation. The Canberra International Airport Pty Ltd group bought the lease for the airport in 1988 and the area previously used by the RAAF was sub-leased back to the Air Force.

With upgrades and future redevelopment, the Canberra Airport will have 6 aerobridges and the floor space for the lounge area will quadruple.  Airport land also houses a business park that has over 12 office buildings and an Outlet Shopping Centre.
