Did You Know? With Mayor Julie Hall

From the end of July 2023, aviation fuel/AVGAS will be available at the Bowen Aerodrome!

This welcome addition to the aerodrome will allow general aviators, aeroclub members and aircraft providing ag spraying to conveniently refuel on-site.

Whitsunday Regional Council owns and manages Whitsunday Coast Airport, as well as three smaller aerodromes (Bowen, Collinsville, and Mount Coolon). This initiative to offer aviation fuel at the Bowen Aerodrome marks the start of an increased commercial focus on our smaller regional airports, adding value to these assets whilst also developing regional access and providing extra value to our community.

Check out the Whitsunday Coast Airport Facebook page and Instagram for all the latest news on our airports and aerodromes.
