The Western Sydney Airport is due to open in 2026 and is starting to take shape. 

The airport has been officially named the Nancy-Bird Walton Airport.

Not only will this airport have domestic and eventually international flights, it will be treated as a freight hub.

9News Reporter, Eddy Meyer, told Chris O’Keefe on 2GB Drive, “The baggage system they’re using is the first of its kind in Australia.”
