Perth Domestic Airport has to be one of the countries worst airport terminals which is still struggling to catch up from the pre-GFC mining boom.

It lacks sufficient space and has very few facilities for passengers for one of the countries busier airports.

Coming from Cairns (a significantly smaller city), the airport is massive in comparison with many more facilities and places for passengers to sit.

Recent upgrades to the terminal have helped a little and the new connection between the Qantas and Virgin terminals (after security) means you can at least stretch your legs.

Unfortunately, there are no other choices if you want to fly in and out of Perth but be prepared to wait for your aircraft with pretty limited options to keep you entertained or relaxed.
