    The cheapest transfers from Ballina/Byron airport are with the local bus company Blanches. The bus stop hard to find - you need to ask. https://www.blanchs.com.au/wp-content/uploads/640.pdf

    7 Mile Brewery makes a great substitute for an airline club at this airport.

    Tiny airport but they still had problems handling our luggage on time.

    Low key airport, feels more like a bus station, but I like that.

    Great little airport near Byron Bay, saving you the multi-hour drive up to Gold Coast or Brisbane.

    It's a regional airport. Don't expect much in the way of wifi or shopping. The cafe is ok.

    Wi-fi has improved but leave plenty of time for getting through security...they are extremely....thorough...... and it takes longer than anywhere else in Australia.

    Ballina airport, you are a regional hell hole, the only purpose of which is to function as an escape route from the open sewer that is Ballina.
