===03 Viewing Deck=== | |||
Perth Airport Pty. Ltd. built a viewing deck on a mound overlooking the 03 threshold. | |||
It faces east, so it is best for afternoon photography. | |||
There is a long ramp to the deck, making it disability accessible (there are also two reserved parking bays for people who hold disability parking permits). | |||
There are no bathrooms or water fountains at the viewing deck. The closest toilets are located at the domestic terminal. | |||
On top of this, there is little shelter and seating. | |||
