Perth Airport (PER) has detailed expansion plans comprising multiple projects—including building a new domestic terminal—to accommodate expected passenger growth.

In a draft of a new master plan published for public comment, the Western Australian airport said it expects annual passengers to grow from around 17.5 million currently to 30.8 million in 2046. PER plans to complete a “multi-billion dollar” infrastructure improvement program by 2031 that will include expanding Terminal 1 and building a new domestic terminal to be used by Qantas Group.

Also planned is a new runway to be located parallel to PER’s main runway, a new 237-room hotel on airport grounds, and two new automobile parking garages.

“We have begun work on the largest private investment in infrastructure in Perth’s history, which will be delivered over the course of this five-year plan,” PER CEO Jason Waters said. “The time for talking is over. We are now delivering a once-in-a-generation construction program that will completely change the face of Perth Airport.”

The release of the master plan, which is expected to be finalized in 2026, comes as PER nears completion of an expansion of Terminal 2, which is expected to be finished in 2026.

The 3,000 m (9,843 ft.) parallel runway is anticipated to be operational in 2028, the airport said. The expansion of Terminal 1 and the building of the new domestic terminal are planned to be completed “around 2031,” according to PER. The new hotel, to be operated by Australian hotel firm Accor, is expected to open in 2027.

PER is the fourth largest Australian airport by passenger volume, served by 30 airlines operating to 114 destinations. It is located on 2,105 hectares (8 mi.2) of land owned by the Australian government. Private operator Perth Airport Pty manages PER under a long-term lease with the Australian government.
