Proserpine Whitsunday Coast Airport — Proserpine, Australia

PPP is the IATA code for Proserpine Whitsunday Coast Airport, located near Proserpine in Queensland, Australia, and serving as the primary gateway to the Whitsunday Islands and Airlie Beach tourist region. Despite its modest size, PPP handles a steady flow of domestic jet traffic from Brisbane and Sydney, largely driven by holidaymakers heading to the Great Barrier Reef. The single-runway airport underwent terminal upgrades to accommodate growing tourist demand, and its role is almost entirely tied to leisure travel rather than business traffic. Ground transport links connect arriving passengers to Airlie Beach and Shute Harbour, where ferries depart for the islands. PPP remains a vital, if compact, piece of regional Queensland's tourism infrastructure.
