Cairns is a progressive and modern tropical city.

The year-round natural attractions are truly memorable and inspiring. The colourful, sophisticated capital of the Tropical North, Cairns city is alive with life and charm. Here, warm northern hospitality and enthusiasm are the order of the day. Ask a local why they love their home and they're likely to say 'because its simply...beautiful'.

The main gateway to Cairns is its airport, which has international, domestic and general aviation terminals, and is served by major international, national and state air carriers. International visitors can fly direct to Australia with Cairns as their point of entry, with flights from:Air New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Papua New Guinea, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Europe & the UK, and outbound to these destinations and to the United States of America.

Within Australia, Qantas, Virgin Blue, Sunstate, Flight West Air Link and local charter companies provide regular flights from major southern cities and regional Queensland towns.

Two major trains operate between Brisbane and Cairns. 'The Sunlander' operates 3 times weekly and 'The Queenslander' operates once a week. The journey takes approximately 32 hours. First class passengers have private, air-conditioned accommodation and the trains have complete dining and refreshment services. There is a backpacker-style carriage option named the Spirit of the Tropics operating on this service. For information on all the rail trips in Queensland, please go here.

Coach travel is an efficient and enjoyable way to see the countryside, and major coach companies operate luxury, air conditioned vehicles with express services between major Australian cities and Cairns. The Cairns district is well serviced with marinas for the boating enthusiast, and an increasing number of overseas cruise ships call at the port of Cairns regularly.

Cairns Airport Transfer Services Bus shuttle services regularly pick up and set down travellers at most hotels and accommodation establishments. In addition to a public airport shuttle service, many hotels and motels have private transfer buses, so ask with your travel agent when booking your accommodation.
