The car parks and roads at Melbourne Airport are very busy this week

All car parks at Melbourne Airport are very busy this week and booking out fast. If you don't have a booking, consider alternate forms of transport to come to the airport. If you do have a booking, allow extra time to find a spot and have your QR code ready for a smooth entry. If using the Terminal 4 car park including pick up and drop off, please note Naarm Way is closed until mid November. To access the T4 car park, please exit the Tullamarine Freeway at Exit 18 on Mercer Drive, then turn right at the Airport Drive roundabout and follow the signs to the Terminal 4 car park. Proceed to Level 2 for drop-offs or Level 1 for pick-ups. Due to ongoing construction in the Terminal 1,2,3 car park pick up and drop off areas, passengers should plan for potential delays of up to an hour during peak times if you are being dropped off by a loved one, taxi or Uber.  Thank you for your patience while we are building your airport.

Now boarding! Melbourne Airport looks to fill hundreds of jobs.

The airport is Victoria’s largest employment precinct outside of the Melbourne CBD, and the positions on offer range from cabin crew, front of house hospitality and retail, through to law enforcement, transport, and security.

More than 40 airport-based businesses are on the lookout for staff, welcoming resumes from entry-level applicants through to senior management.

Melbourne Airport CEO Lorie Argus said it’s the perfect time to start a career in aviation, with passenger numbers on the rise.

“The airport has bounced back to 88% of pre-Covid passenger volumes, so it’s vital our staffing levels keep pace with traveller demand,” she said.

“Not only are we seeing more people travelling, but we’re also renovating parts of the terminal – such as adding 11 new restaurants in Terminal 1 – creating new retail and hospitality opportunities.

“Qantas, Jetstar, Rex, Bonza and Virgin all have vacancies to fill, and a couple of our international carriers are also recruiting.

“This is the first time we’ve held a careers fair on-airport, and it’s a great opportunity to get a feel for the environment and speak directly with employers.”

Melbourne Airport’s Jobs Fair will be held in front of Terminal 4 and will operate over two separate sessions from 2pm to 4pm and 4pm to 6pm.

Registration is essential and jobseekers can sign up to attend the event via Eventbite, https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/melbourne-airport-jobs-fair-tickets-623371921197

Complimentary Terminal car parking in the Terminal 4 Car Park will be available to guests at the event.
