Queenstown Airport believes that the movement of essential operations services into the Hub will also free-up much-needed space in-terminal for border agencies.

Access to the building is available from the landside rental car park, while secure access is also available on the airside. The landside location will provide easy access for non-security cleared personnel to the EOC if it is activated.

The centre also has additional facilities for use by all QAC staff, including a lunchroom with kitchen facilities, showers and storage, and a boardroom for up to 12 people.
