Perth sits on the edge of the Indian Ocean and connects millions of travellers each year to the rest of Australia and the world. Handling more than 17 million passengers annually, YPPH is a major hub linking the east coast with Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. There’s always movement across the tarmac. A380s and Dreamliners from Emirates, Qantas, and Singapore Airlines glide in from the Middle East and Asia, while 737s and A320s handle the steady rhythm of domestic routes across Australia. Further across the airfield, the FIFO operations that keep Western Australia’s mining industry running are in full swing. Network Aviation, Cobham, and Alliance Airlines operate fleets of Fokker 100s, E190s, and A320s, connecting Perth to remote towns and airfields across the state.
