The city hosts some of the country’s largest international events including the Australian Open, Formula One Australian Grand Prix and the Melbourne Cup, which generate significant private jet traffic each year.

Both airports support business aviation infrastructure, with facilities such as Melbourne Jet Base providing ground handling and services for international private jet traffic.
