Blackall Airport (IATA BKQ, ICAO YBCK) is a regional aerodrome in central-west Queensland, about 4 km west-southwest of the town of Blackall. It sits at 283 m above sea level.
Two runways serve the field. Runway 06/24 is sealed asphalt and 1,688 m long. Runway 12/30 is a clay strip 1,603 m long. The airport is owned by Blackall-Tambo Regional Council.
In August 2016 the Queensland Government opened an upgrade of the airport, delivered as three projects: a purpose-built passenger terminal costing about $1 million, a $365,000 upgrade of the runway and taxiway lighting, and a $443,049 refuelling facility. The state contributed $878,701 to those works, and a further $250,000 went to car parking and landscaping.
QantasLink operates the scheduled service, with flights to Longreach and Brisbane. In December 2010 the airline announced that it would introduce Q400 turboprops on the Blackall route from early February 2011, lifting weekly services from two flights to three.
