º The departure lounge at Terminal 4.
Terminal 4 welcomes Jetstar In August, Melbourne Airport’s new Terminal 4 (T4) opened its doors and on Tuesday 10 November, another step in the staged opening will take place when Jetstar moves in to Australia’s newest domestic terminal. T4 is the first terminal in the Asia Pacific to open as a complete self-service facility, with stateof-the-art check-in kiosks and automated bag drop facilities. On Level 1 of the terminal, passengers transit through security screening to the impressive departure lounge, where they can relax, have something to eat or shop while waiting for their flight. With 1,200 seats, and floor to ceiling windows, the lounge offers sweeping views of the airfield and overhead screens provide detailed
flight information, including a countdown for when passengers must board their flight. T4’s departure lounge is home to leading names in fashion and food catering for all tastes and budgets. Victoria’s Secret, Trenery, Country Road, Mimco and funky Spanish brand, Desigual, are just some of the exciting fashion brands. Joining them are Melbourne coffee icon Brunetti, Two Johns Taphouse and other favourites such as Boost Juice, Muffin Break and Krispy Kreme. Opposite T4 is the new transport hub. All passengers and visitors are to use the hub, whether parking, getting dropped off or picked up by a taxi or friends. This multi-level facility features a dedicated taxi rank and bus interchange on the ground floor,
passenger drop-off on level 1 and pick-up on level 2, and car parking on seven levels, including disabled parking on level 1 and 2. For people travelling to T4 from the Tullamarine Freeway, it’s recommended they exit via Mercer Drive while passengers travelling from the Western Ring Road can take the new Airport Drive. Passengers on Sunbury Road can exit onto Centre Road and Grants Road. Once at the transport hub, it’s then a short walk to the terminal. T4 was built over a two year period—all while Australia’s second largest passenger airport continued operating 24/7 around construction works. For more information, visit www.t4you.com.au
