Remote outback gateway serving far northwest New South Wales.

Location

Tibooburra, Australia

Tibooburra Airport is a small regional aerodrome located in the far northwest corner of New South Wales, Australia, serving the remote outback town of Tibooburra. It provides essential air access to one of Australia's most isolated communities, situated within the Corner Country region near the Sturt National Park. The airport handles general aviation, charter flights, and emergency services rather than regular scheduled commercial airline operations. Its remote location makes air transport a critical link for the local population, tourists, and government services accessing this sparsely populated region. Tibooburra itself is one of the most remote towns in New South Wales, and the airport plays a vital role in supporting Royal Flying Doctor Service operations, medical evacuations, and tourism-related access to the surrounding outback landscape.

Terminals

The airport has no formal passenger terminal building, featuring only basic facilities typical of a remote outback aerodrome.

Getting to & from

Ground transport into Tibooburra town is limited, with private vehicles being the primary means of transfer from the airstrip.
