Adelaide Airport (ADL) is located in West Beach, South Australia and is the primary airport serving the Adelaide area. It is positioned about 3.7 miles west of the West Beach city center and is operated privately by Adelaide Airport Limited.

A series of developments and improvements was approved and launched in 2011, including a number of new car parks, a new road network, and new control tower. The improvements (some of which have been completed) are intended to improve passenger handling, vehicle traffic flow, and steadily-increasing air traffic.

Adelaide Airport serviced 7,696,000 passengers in the 2014 fiscal year and is the fifth-busiest airport in Australia.
