Christmas Island Airport is a small regional airport located on the Australian territory of Christmas Island. Although located on Australian territory, the airport is classified as an international airport for all arrivals, including those from Australia.
Airlines and destinations include Malaysia Airlines to Kuala Lumpur, National Jet Systems to Coco Islands, Exmouth, and Perth, and SilkAir to Singapore.
Traffic to and from the airport varies greatly. Tourist attractions such as the migration of the Christmas Island red crab and the island's Christmas Island Resort have caused spikes in traffic levels.
The construction of an immigration detention centre on the island resulted in a temporary increase in Royal Australian Air Force and Department of Immigration and Citizenship and the Australian Department of Immigration arrivals.
