Avalon Airport (IATA: AVV, ICAO: YMAV) is a domestic airport, located in Avalon in the City of Greater Geelong in Victoria, Australia. While located outside the Melbourne metropolitan area, it is the second busiest of the four airports serving the state capital in passenger traffic. It is located 15 km (9 mi) north-east of the Geelong CBD and 50 kilometres (31 mi) south-west of the Melbourne CBD. The airport is operated by Avalon Airport Australia Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Linfox.
Avalon is currently served by passenger airline Jetstar, which began domestic flights in 2004.[3] The airport is also the site of the biennial Australian International Airshow, which has been held at the venue since 1992.[4]
Unlike Melbourne Airport, Avalon Airport is not governed by the Commonwealth's Airports Act 1996. The airport has a single runway in addition to a helipad.
