Brisbane Airport is the official name of the Airport. Please leave the article with this name. The airport is a very large one, with both an International Terminal and a Domestic Terminal. Figaro 06:33, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Do Lufthansa and British Airways fly to Brisbane? From what I know, they only code share on Singapore Airlines and Qantas respectively, but I do not think they use their own metal to land in Brisbane. 11:30, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- Full information about all the airlines can be found at the official Brisbane Airport website. There is a link to the Brisbane Airport official website at the 'External links' section of the main article. Figaro 14:53, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Brisbane Airport infobox
In spite of what Zyxw claimed, he hasn't fixed what I was trying to fix, at all. I wanted "Brisbane" to link to "Brisbane", "Queensland" to link to "Queensland", and "Australia" to link to "Australia", the way things used to be, before the info box format was changed, and the way it should be. I did not want "Brisbane, Queensland, Australia" to link to "Brisbane", which is how Zyxw has left it. So the problem remains, unresolved. Figaro 15:58, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
- I have modified the infobox so that "Brisbane" links to "Brisbane", "Queensland" links to "Queensland", and "Australia" links to "Australia". Unfortunately, there are now square brackets appearing before "Brisbane", and following "Australia". Any suggestions as to how to cure this problem would be appreciated.
- People in other countries have adopted a similar way of doing things to correct the situation, until the problem no longer exists with the infobox. Figaro 07:09, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

- Figaro, as I said at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Airports/infobox#Olds-Didsbury Airport, what's the problem? The state/division and country are specified in the article proper, the infobox just gives a quick link for the area served. Thanks/wangi 00:08, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Destinations
I removed the destinations from the Qantas list that are not served by their own metal (Nadi and Osaka). Those destinations are flown by their partners Air Pacific and Japan Airlines respectively. Furthermore, I've also added destinations for Air NZ, they also fly to Wellington and Queenstown, and some of Garuda's flights extend to Auckland Arnzy 10:47, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] History
Why is there no mention of Crib Island in this article? Factoid Killer 14:51, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
I've added a history section. This will begin with what existed in the area prior to building the airport and will then include some interesting historical facts about the airport itself including the various stages of construction and alterations. Factoid Killer 16:29, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Encyclopedia Article or Brochure?
This article doesn't look even remotely like an encyclopedia article. Instead we've put together a brochure for the brisbane airport. To top it off, the second anyone adds the sort of information that you'd expect to see in an encyclopedia, it's moved to the bottom because we don't want it getting in the way of the brochure!
Sorry guys but this is ridiculous. I propose we remove the Brochure and write a wikipedia article.
Factoid Killer 13:40, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
More specifically i'm suggesting we do the following:
- Remove this section 'Access to Brisbane Airport by car and train'
- Put the History section back at the top (like it is in the Kingsford Smith International Airport article)
- Followed by terminals
- Add more information about the history of the airport
- Add some more statistics about the airport

- Most of this has since been done by various editors. --Arnzy (whats up?) 09:23, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
