Airport guide
Parkes Airport (YPKS) is a medium airport in Parkes, Australia. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code YPKS or IATA code PKE. It sits in Oceania.
Parkes Airport is a regional commercial airport that doubles as a busy private-aviation base. Operators benefit from full instrument approaches and an FBO infrastructure scaled for regular jet traffic, often without the congestion of the nearest major hub.
Parkes Airport lies at 1,069 ft elevation.
Local operations run on Australia/Sydney. Scheduled airline service is light enough that it rarely interferes with charter movements, though planners should still expect to coordinate with the handling agent for international turnarounds.
SkyAccess inventory for YPKS updates continuously as operators publish new empty legs and one-way repositioning trips. Pricing on each leg is available with a free account, and an inventory alert will email you the moment a leg appears on the route you care about.
