The Airtrain Citylink connects the airport to Fortitude Valley and the Brisbane CBD, with most trains continuing onwards to the Gold Coast via South Bank.
By Car
Brisbane Airport has 4 car-parks. There are 2 multi-level undercover car parks, one near the international terminal and one near the domestic terminal. They both provide 24 hour long and short term parking. Qantas and Virgin Australia also offer Valet Parking at the domestic terminal.
