In Adelaide for a few days? Discover some of our great wineries with a trip to the Adelaide Hills or visit McLaren Vale, the Clare or Barossa. So many great places to exploreUpvoted Jan 6
Glen DunkleyApril 12, 2015Great modern airport. Nice retail and food options. Easy access to gates. Access to parking is easy as well.
Welcome to #Adelaide, the capital of South Australia, where you can open the door and draw the curtains. Make yourself at home :-)Upvoted Nov 22, 2024
Tiffany NgJune 12, 2018Super easy to navigate and Qantas lounge is a real treat with space for all to sit and rest
This airport is great! Had a good experience with the need to use a wheelchair last min and Qantas/Jetstar and airport staff were there assisting all the way.
For a new airport terminal there are surprisingly few power outlets and competition to recharge your laptop, tablet or phone is fierce.
Modern airport with quick security screening. Plenty of food and bevy options. Kick back in the Qantas Lounge if you can!
Andrew O BC 翁March 14, 2018Friendly airport personnel & comfortable seats while waiting for check-in
IG @antskongDecember 9, 2014Nice cosy terminal. Hudson Coffee is a must. Well at least that is my preference. Free Wifi is provided.
Free power points are available at the business hub between gates 13 and 14 for recharging your electronic devices. There's also some desk space to get some paperwork done.
Uber pick up area is across the crossing by the hire car collection area
There are free showers on the way out on the lower level, in the toilets near the luggage carousels
TingOctober 19, 2014Nifty little airport with free wifi. To get Optus mobile pre-paid card, head towards WH Smith once you get out of departures hall onto the pedestrian plaza.
Cil FelpsJanuary 4, 2016For a facility that is entirely dependant on time, time keeping, and being on time, there is a distinct lack of clocks and obvious time pieces (I think I saw one hiding behind a beam)- One really nasty power tripping cow with spiked bleach hair in security checkin, loves to torment old people with metal hips. Yeah, do your job love, but no need to bully old ladies into tears.
Leave enough time to queue at the taxi rank. They recently (Feb 2013) changed the location of the rank & lot where the cabs wait and the system is NOT working. Queues at 7am - 9am can be 20-30 minutes
Feisal FeiSeptember 29, 2014I'm not living in Adelaide and rarely travel through this airport, but this place has a homey feeling in it.
Aanisa PritchardJanuary 27, 2015Food, free wifi with a good connection, nice views while waiting and easy to navigate
Mary-Anne CosgroveAugust 20, 2016First time I've ever seen a live band at an airport. Also a beautiful copper sculpture of a sea dragon
Feeling nervy about your flight? Head straight for the coopers bar, they have janz by the glass :)
Make sure to stock up at Taste of South Australia in the main airside concourse, so many tasty items you'll find it hard to choose.
Welcome to Adelaide!! Pick up a cheap meal at Ikea (cooked breakfast for $3.95!) & a good place to waste some time between flights too =)
Somebody brilliant put a kids playground in the terminal. I take my hat off to you brilliant person!
Can someone please turn down the tannoy!!!?! (That one's for those old school thespians out there)
Nigel GlasgowMarch 15, 2018Got all you need. Sports bar in hotel over the road if you’re there for a while
FraintesaFebruary 14, 2014Free wifi and business hubs, and recycled water used for toilet flushings. Great place!
AjSeptember 30, 2012Passenger pickup has now moved to a new driveway. Proceed toward taxi rank and cross street underneath the new carpark.
Simon Eddie KDecember 25, 2010Powerpoint at end of seats on wall of gate 17 is excellent for charging your gadgets and what not! Also, hudsons tall latte w/3 sugars ftw =)
Stay away from Terra Rosa for coffee. Go get it from Cibo. It's like Starbucks, but made in SA with <3
- Watch out for a british dude at Hudsons Coffee on the way to the terminals. He held up a line for half an hour chatting to a few bimbos who were at the front.
Bernie HernándezMarch 22, 2013Remember to go to the loo BEFORE getting into the "In Transit" queue. Otherwise you'd have to go back or wait a long time.
avoid the taxi queues and book a Yellow Mini Bus to collect you, all your luggage will fit and have a relaxing trip home
Nikhil CJanuary 8, 2018For international you go through security twice, bring food or eat more second one
Layover TipsJune 3, 2012If you're landing or taking off on a Friday, check out the acoustic duo in the arrival and departures hall. Read more
Katie T.January 21, 2014The airport isn't open 24 hr. So if your flight is the day after you should think of an accommodation
International flight process: Checkin ➡️ Security 1 (visitors allowed, last chance for food) ➡️ Security 2 (passengers only) ➡️ Gates
Welcome to the beautiful Adelaide. Enjoy our clean air, warm weather and beautiful beaches- Welcome to Adelaide, home to fine wine, weather and food!
Paul DSeptember 30, 2011Great international arrivals experience - even at 6:30am. Very pleasant border control staff.
Simon JonesJanuary 22, 2012Don't take an Allen key in your luggage - it will be confiscated. I never knew that planes were made by IKEA :)
