Perth Airport serves Western Australia by connecting people, business and communities, and provides support for local communities. It strengthens cultural, family and social bonds as well as supporting business, tourism and leisure travel. It is the fourth busiest airport in Australia in terms of passenger traffic, and operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, throughout the year. Pre-Covid (FY18/19), almost 15 million passengers travelled through Perth Airport compared to just 5.8m passengers in FY 20/21. Perth Airport is a privately held corporation owned by institutional investors, predominately Australian superannuation funds. Perth Airport is part of a 2,105 hectare estate with sufficient capacity to expand and meet projected commercial aviation demands for the next 40 years and beyond.
