Keeping air travel safe – just an everyday focus at the Emerald Airport 

Posted on March 17, 2025

Emerald Airport remains committed to staying up to date with the latest security measures to help protect travellers. Our team continually evolves its processes through ongoing staff training and regular upgrades to screening technology and equipment. 

‘Safety and security are at the core of our airport operations,’ said Central Highlands Regional Council Chief Executive Officer Aaron Johansson. 

‘Our team works diligently behind the scenes to ensure we meet and exceed regulatory requirements, providing a safe environment for all passengers, visitors, and staff. 

‘Airport security is a highly regulated space, and we continuously review our procedures, invest in new technology, and train our staff to maintain the highest standards,’ Mr Johannson continued.  

‘We appreciate the patience and cooperation of all travellers as we implement these essential security measures.’ 

To help make the process smoother, travellers can prepare by knowing: 

What items are permitted onboard.  What to expect during the screening process.
