Kalgoorlie Boulder Airport guide

Kalgoorlie-Boulder Airport is the main air link for the Goldfields region of Western Australia. It lies at Broadwood, about 6 km south of Kalgoorlie, and the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder owns and runs it. Ownership passed from the Commonwealth to the Shire of Boulder in 1989, and a A$4.2 million grant paid for a new terminal and extra runway space. The new airport opened in November 1992.

Perth is the only scheduled destination. Qantas, QantasLink and Virgin Australia fly the route, with Alliance Airlines and Nexus Airlines also listed on it. The Perth route carried 366,900 passengers in the year to December 2024. Much of the traffic is fly-in fly-out mining workers. Qantas adds Sydney flights in peak periods such as the Diggers & Dealers conference.

The airport has two sealed runways, 11/29 at 2,000 m and 18/36 at 1,200 m. The Royal Flying Doctor Service uses Kalgoorlie as a hub and flies major injury patients to Perth. Goldfields Air Services runs charters and flight lessons from the field. Passengers get free Wi-Fi, a children's play area, and Angie's Bar and Kiosk, which opens 45 minutes before each scheduled flight. Avis, Budget, Hertz and Europcar offer car hire, and Twin City Cabs and Go Gold Taxi serve the terminal.
