Car Hire in Maitland Airport - Mini guide to Maitland Airport

The Maitland Airport is a mid-sized airport, situated just outside the city of Maitland, in the Lower Hunter Region of New South Wales. Just over 160 kilometers from the major population center of Sydney, the airport services the area, and is primarily concerned with commuter aircraft and carriers from the city of Maitland, which has a population of just over 60,000 people. The airport serves the entire area, and is a major hub for general aviation and medical flights to and from points across Australia.

The airport is large enough to offer car hire services as well as food and drink amenities to travelers, and serves as a much faster option for cross-country travel to Melbourne and Perth. Its proximity to Sydney ensures that many residents of Sydney's outlying suburbs use the Maitland airport for the cross-country business trips, since the cost is similar to the major airports closer to Sydney, while the delays and crowds are significantly smaller. The airport also serves the municipalities of Rutherford and Metford, as well.

River traffic ensured that the area surrounding the Maitland airport would come to serve as a major transportation hub for goods moving into the inner regions of the country, and steamships and barges provided most of the backbone for the work. The airport is served by the New England Highway, which provides efficient travel from nearby Hexham. Many of Australia's most notable celebrities have homes in the Maitland area, and use the Maitland airport as their general aviation terminal when arriving on chartered flights.
