Location

Blackall, Australia

Blackall Airport (IATA: BKQ, ICAO: YBCK) is a small regional airport serving the town of Blackall in central-western Queensland, Australia. It supports the local pastoral and wool-industry community as well as providing air access to an otherwise isolated region. The airport handles light regional traffic and charter flights, playing an important role in connecting Blackall's roughly 1,000 residents to larger Queensland centres. It is managed at the local government level and sees limited scheduled airline services. Blackall is known historically as the home of the first artesian bore drilled in Queensland and as a major wool-producing district, and the airport reflects the modest infrastructure typical of remote outback communities.

Terminals

The airport features a single small terminal building suited to the low passenger volumes typical of a remote outback regional facility.

Getting to & from

Ground transport between the airport and Blackall town centre is primarily by private vehicle or pre-arranged charter, as no regular public bus service operates on the route.
