The terminal building is equipped with a Wi-Fi hearing Loop which provides coverage in the Level 1 food court and Domestic Departure Lounge. The purpose of this loop is to provide hearing impaired persons with Wi-Fi assisted hearing. It will work for hearing aids with Bluetooth ability via a smartphone. For those persons with traditional telecoil hearing aids, there is no interface, so the phone app can be used with headphones. If you identify as requiring additional assistance, our staff are trained to speak slowly and clearly when required.
