Perth Airport, Australia’s fourth busiest airport, serves the west of the continent and links passengers to destinations all over the world.

Qatar Airways flights from Perth regularly travel to Doha, making this a convenient departure point for both business and leisure travellers.

The typically laid-back Australian nature makes this a very friendly airport too, with helpful staff available throughout.

Parking and transportation

Perth Airport is very business-focused, providing plenty of parking and easy transportation to, and from, the city of Perth for business users.

Long-term parking is just 10 minutes away from the International Terminal 1, and a shuttle bus runs every few minutes from the parking area to the terminal. Both short and long-term parking areas are patrolled by 24-hour security.

The Perth Airport Connect shuttle bus runs from East Perth train station, and other locations in the city, to Terminal 3. International travellers can then connect with a shuttle bus service to take them to Terminal 1. Covered taxi ranks are located outside the main entrance to the terminal.

Arriving in Perth

Qatar Airways flights from Perth leave from International Terminal 1. The terminal has a number of lounges (some of which are airline-specific). Security is tight in Australia, so ensure that you do not have any banned items in your handbags and carry-on luggage to avoid delays.

Facilities and amenities

Wi-Fi is available throughout Terminal 1 (note that there may be some not-spots in areas close to ongoing construction). There are a number of retail outlets in Terminal 1, including duty-free shops  and others that offer Australian goods – ideal for buying last-minute souvenirs.

A food court provides passengers with a selection of light bites, snacks, drinks and substantial meals with an international flavour.

Despite having plenty packed into a relatively small area, Belgrade is remarkably easy to explore. Most of the key attractions are centrally located and are close to the majority of the hotels, so touring the city on foot is probably the easiest way to see it at its best.

Tourist attractions

At the heart of the city is Belgrade Fortress, a magnificent fortification that is now Belgrade’s central park. Access the park from the end of Knez Mihailova street, and take a walk along the battlements for some beautiful views, especially during sunset. Within the Fortress you’ll find cafés, museums and even an observatory.

The central Republic Square is a huge, cobbled open space that also houses the National Museum, the city’s main theatre and the most popular shopping street, Knez Mihailova.

Belgrade is full of royal palaces, and you can choose from the Old Royal Palace at Nikola Pasic Square, the White Palace or the New Palace, which is located conveniently next to the Old Palace. And well worth a visit is the Nikola Tesla museum, which charts the extraordinary life of Belgrade’s most famous son and one of the most brilliant scientific minds of his generation.
