Air freight

Air freight makes up an important part of Australia's overall freight task.

Spanning across every Australian state and territory, air-freight is used to transport high-value and time-critical goods such as parcels, seafood and medical supplies.

In response to COVID-19, the Australian Government has released a range of measures to support the aviation industry and to maintain air connectivity.

In order to meet our growing passenger and freight needs, we continue to invest in infrastructure projects such as the Western Sydney Airport. Learn more about our Infrastructure Investment projects.
