Sydney’s second international airport, Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport, opens in 2026.
The Australian Government is investing up to $5.3 billion to deliver the airport through a government-owned company, Western Sydney Airport. The airport will operate without curfews, delivering international, domestic and freight services. It is expected to support almost 28,000 direct and indirect jobs by 2031 and service up to 10 million passengers a year.
