The Whitsunday Coast Airport is serviced by Jetstar and Virgin Blue. A friend recently reported to me his experience flying between Whitsunday Coast and Tasmania which resulted in no less than 6 changes to his and his families flights. Even to the point where the airline was going to separate the kids from the adults ! This doesn't seem to be an isolated case and may be caused by the Airlines constantly over booking their flights. On the whole though, the majority of passengers do have a trouble free flight. We do recommend travel insurance for instances just like these if you've booked accommodation or a sailing trip and need to be on time !

When you disembark at the Whitsunday Coast Airport, you will be able to choose from a taxi, bus or limousine service. Taxi and Limousine are not that different in price and if your first off the flight and the limo's free ... hey, start your holiday with a bang !

If you've been to Airlie beach before and noticed how impossible it is to get a taxi at certain times of the day, take a look at all the taxi's at the Airport !
