Airtrain’s Airport stations were purposely built to accommodate passengers needing wheelchair access, the platform is level to the train floor allowing easy access to all trains. In addition, both the Domestic and International Airport stations have lifts provided.
For travel to the Airport, all Queensland Rail stations have an assisted boarding point on the platform. This point is indicated by a blue and white symbol for accessibility and is located near the middle section of the platform."
