Brisbane Airport is currently still open and operating despite the king tide at 1.30pm. Reports on Sky News and Twitter that Brisbane Airport is closing are inaccurate and should be disregarded.

Brisbane Airport Corporation is confident the International and Domestic terminals will be able to continue operations as normal, despite unprecedented rain and water levels.

Brisbane Airport Corporation (BAC) will continue to monitor water levels across the airport due to king tides expected at 1.30pm today and 2.15pm tomorrow.

For further information on flight schedules, passengers should contact their airlines direct.

Brisbane Airport will continue to update the website www.bne.com.au as the week progresses.
