Terminal 3 Terminal 3 is a domestic terminal, serving Qantas with QantasLink flights having moved their operations from Terminal 2 to Terminal 3 on 16 August 2013. Originally, it was home for Trans Australia Airlines( later named Australian Airlines). Like Terminal 2 it is located in the north-eastern section. The current terminal building is largely the result of extensions designed by Hassell that were completed in 1999. This included construction of a 60-metre roof span above a new column free checkin hall and resulted in extending the terminal footprint to 80,000sqm. There are 14 parking bays served by aerobridges, including two served by dual aerobridges. Terminal 3 features a large Qantas Club lounge, along with a dedicated Business Class and Chairmans lounge. Terminal 3 also has a ' Heritage Collection ' located adjacent to gate 13, dedicated to Qantas and including many collections from the airline ' s 90-plus years of service. It also has a view of the airport ' s apron and is used commonly by plane-spotters. Qantas sold its lease of terminal 3, which was due to continue until 2019, back to Sydney Airport for $ 535 million. This means Sydney Airport resumes operational responsibility of the terminal, including the lucrative retail areas.
