Mackay Airport Upgrade Nears Completion

The $3.5 million redevelopment of the Mackay Airport terminal is in the final stages.

The “Delimarche” restaurant and the “Barra Pond” bar will open for business within days, marking a major milestone for the project. Visitors will notice the final stages coming together, ready for completion by the end of March.

It is anticipated that people will be able to check-in and walk straight through the new security section, like they can in most other airports, and into a big open waiting area with plenty of seating.

There will be a total of 700 seats in the departure lounge, as well as an upgraded outdoor observation area which will be licensed and have shade and seating available.

There will also be two big screen televisions in the departure lounge, as well as a big screen television near the bar.

Lastly, three new Jetstar self-check-in facilities have also been added to the airport and will be beneficial in keeping customer traffic moving.
