Welcome Agnew Airport (AGW) is a unique piece of infrastructure in the heart of Western Australia’s Goldfields, primarily serving the FIFO (fly‑in fly‑out) community linked to the local gold mining industry.

## Insider tips

- _Insider_: Approach AGW like a remote worksite location. No common airport facilities like shops or ATMs are available.
- _Time_: FIFO charter flights often sync with shift schedules which means arrivals and departures can commonly occur in the low light of pre-dawn or late evening.
- _Avoid_: Ensure your baggage complies with weight restrictions as overages can result in hefty fees or delays.
- _Quiet_: Early morning and late afternoon are the quietest times, allowing you to experience beautiful outback light and sunsets.
- _Local_: Despite a lack of on-ground entertainment, flights offer aerial views of WA's red landscapes, which can be quite a sight on a clear day.
- _Money_: Confirm any transport needs in advance, as there's no pricing structure and movement relies entirely on pre-arranged company transportation.
