After fifty years in planning and eight years under construction, Brisbane's new runway became operational on Sunday 12 July 2020 - on time, under budget and despite an ongoing global pandemic.

This video reflects back on this momentous project and what it means for the future of Brisbane Airport, our city and our state.

The new runway gives Brisbane the most efficient runway system in Australia. It will serve the needs of South East Queensland for decades to come, maintaining and growing our connections with the world as our city continues to grow, while building the gateway to Queensland & Australia.
