Location

Cloncurry, Australia

Cloncurry Airport (IATA: CNJ, ICAO: YCCY) is a regional airport located in Cloncurry, Queensland, Australia. Situated in the Mount Isa region of northwest Queensland, it serves as an important transport link for the remote outback community and surrounding pastoral and mining industries. The airport handles regular passenger services connecting Cloncurry to major Queensland hubs, as well as charter and general aviation operations supporting the local mining sector. The Royal Flying Doctor Service also operates through the airport, which is critical given the region's remoteness and sparse population. Cloncurry is historically significant as a centre of early Australian aviation, with connections to Hudson Fysh and the founding of Qantas in the region. The airport continues to play a vital role in the economic and social connectivity of northwest Queensland.

Terminals

The airport features a small single terminal suited to regional passenger volumes.

Getting to & from

Ground transport to and from the airport is primarily via private vehicle, taxi, or hire car, as public transit options are limited in the remote outback town.
