Toowoomba Airport (TWB/YTWB), also known as Toowoomba City Aerodrome, is a small general aviation airport at Wilsonton, about 3–5 km west of Toowoomba's CBD in Queensland. It has long served as the city's original airfield and today supports flight training, private aircraft, maintenance, and emergency services rather than scheduled airline traffic. Commercial passenger services for the region now operate mainly from nearby Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport (WTB).
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors check the aerodrome weather and NOTAMs before arriving, as Toowoomba's elevation and Darling Downs conditions can bring low cloud, fog, and gusty winds that often differ from Brisbane.
🚖 Getting There
By car, taxi, or rideshare is the most practical way to reach TWB; there is no dedicated airport rail link or frequent public bus service. From the CBD, head west toward Wilsonton and allow about 10–15 minutes depending on traffic. If you are flying commercially, double-check whether your flight departs from TWB or Wellcamp (WTB), as they are separate airports.
