Whitsunday Coast Airport (IATA: PPP, ICAO: YBPN), also known as Proserpine Airport, is located in Gunyarra, Queensland, Australia, 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) south of Proserpine.

[4] Plans to build an airfield in Proserpine commenced in 1936, however construction was delayed due to a lack of funding.

[6] In September 2001, the airport suffered heavily from the collapse of Ansett Australia, who at the time were the biggest operator out of Proserpine with direct services to Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne.

[7] In January 2014, Whitsunday Regional Council announced it was to discuss with the Government of Queensland the process for designating the airport precinct a PDA (Priority Development Area).

This would make the future process of extending the runway the relatively short distance required to receive international services easier and to alleviate the industrial land crisis that has been affecting the Whitsunday Region for many years.
