Airport shuttle
TRAVELLERS from Cairns Airport will have more transport options as of this week with the introduction of a new scheduled shuttle service.
The “Cairns Airporter” will offer local residents and tourists a regular city transfer service from morning till night.
Cairns Airport Chief Executive Officer, Richard Barker, said the service would provide faster, and more frequent trips into the Cairns CBD. There would also be more scheduled transfer services to Port Douglas and Cairns.
Barker said travellers would appreciate shorter waiting times between aircraft arrival and transfer coach departures.
He said the additional services would provide passengers with more options during peak arrival periods when taxis and rideshare services were in high demand.
The service is being provided by Exemplar Coaches and Limousines which has been operating in Cairns since 1993.
Company director, Gordon Wellham, said the company’s transfer desks would operate from first flight to last flight in both the Domestic and International Arrivals terminals. The company hoped to have a 24-hour desk at the airport by the end of the year.
“We are very excited to be expanding our business and look forward to offering even better service to our existing and new travellers,” Wellham said.
