On Monday 30th March, the Whitsunday Regional Council hosted the opening of the Daydream Island Guest Lounge at Whitsunday Coast Airport. Members of the Whitsunday Regional Council, Tourism Whitsundays and Whitsunday Chamber of Commerce and Industry were present. This marks an exciting opportunity for the airport.
Whitsunday Regional Mayor Ry Collins said the initiative highlights the important role Whitsunday Coast Airport plays in supporting the region’s visitor economy.
“Whitsunday Coast Airport is the front door to the Whitsunday Islands, and initiatives like this help ensure the experience for visitors arriving in our region reflects the premium destination we are proud to offer,” Mayor Collins said.
Director of Commercial Business Craig Turner said the partnership demonstrates the airport’s growing collaboration with tourism operators and airlines to create a more connected visitor experience.
“Whitsunday Coast Airport continues to evolve as a key gateway to the islands, and working with tourism partners like Daydream Island Resort helps create a seamless journey for visitors from aircraft to island,” Mr Turner said.
These improvements further position Whitsunday Coast Airport as a high-quality regional gateway and support the continued growth of the Whitsundays as one of Australia’s most iconic tourism destinations.
