Store your luggage securely at the Luggage Lockers located next to the luggage carousel - perfect if you fancy heading into Cairns while you wait for other people to arrive on later flights.
Totally renovated & reinvented, this airportsports cool architecture and cultural artworks. Only 10 mins from the city centre, you'll be pleased to know the cabbies here are very laid-back
You still get dropped off on the tarmac for regional flights with a decent walk to the terminal. However, renovations with all the additional shops & seating areas are a welcome change!
Right up the end of the arrivals terminal is a fantastically positioned green seat. Long enough to stretch out on and go to sleep and right next to, not one but TWO power outlets for recharging.
The sun is good here. Don't check in too early. Not enough seats near the domestic check in counters. No free wifi in 2014, and nothing to offer for waiting areas.
Don't expect to charge your device before boarding. I only saw two, but I'd estimate there are only about six outlets for all domestic departure gates combined.
