Port Douglas was officially recognised at Sydney Airport at the end of February this year when a QANTAS Boeing 737 - 838 aircraft bearing it's name was presented at Sydney Airport.

This very special aircraft was unveiled on 25 February 2013 in the new 'Bring It On' livery, with titles on the rear fuselage saying "PROUDLY SUPPORTING THE QANTAS WALLABIES AS THEY TAKE ON THE LIONS".

This aircraft is named PORT DOUGLAS and it's new livery is to promote the Australia's Qantas Wallabies Rugby union team in the upcoming British 'Lions' rugby union tour of Australia.

Port Douglas (The Aircraft) will be transporting the team all around Australia to each of the match venues during the British Lions series and exposing the name of our wonderful town wherever they land!
