Launceston Airport (LST) is Tasmania's second-busiest airport, serving the state's north as the main gateway to Launceston and the Tamar Valley. Compare fares and set a Price Alert before you fly.
LST is located in Western Junction, about 15km from Launceston's city centre, and handled around 1.4 million passengers in the 2023–24 financial year, with January 2025 setting a new monthly record. The airport is investing more than $100 million over five years to upgrade its terminal and airfield.
Fares and frequency vary by season, so it's worth comparing before you book.
Launceston has a single terminal handling all domestic services. A 2008 expansion doubled the terminal's floor space, and it now has a local gift store, Tassie food and drink options, free Wi-Fi and plenty of seating, along with lifts, wheelchair assistance and a Hidden Disability Program.
August, September and February tend to be quieter (and cheaper) months to fly, while December-January and Easter see the biggest price spikes. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are usually the cheapest days to depart, and booking 6-8 weeks ahead gives you a solid shot at a good deal.
