Worth knowing about Perth
- The Airport line opened on 9 October 2022 and reaches the airport through roughly 8 km of twin bored tunnels that pass under the airport and the Swan River.
- Airport Central station, which serves Terminals 1 and 2, is underground; Terminals 3 and 4 are served by Redcliffe station about 1 km away, so the right station depends on your airline.
- Perth Airport's terminals are split across two sides of the airfield, with T1 and T2 on the eastern side and Qantas-operated T3 and T4 on the western side.
- Perth has no metro system; the Airport line is part of the Transperth suburban heavy-rail network run by the Public Transport Authority.
