   There are two domestic freight areas operating at the Hobart airport, catering for Australian air Express, Toll Air and Virgin Blue. The Australian air Express facility is located south of the Domestic terminal. The facility includes two buildings on a total area of approximately 10,000 square metres (110,000 sq ft), including the freight apron area. Australian air Express uses dedicated jet freight aircraft. In January 2007, Virgin Blue and Toll Air opened a 1,000 square metres (11,000 sq ft) dedicated freight facility at to the north of the international terminal. Currently this new freight area has no dedicated apron of its own, but rather makes use of the cargo holds of the passenger planes already serving the airport. The operators of the airport have expressed interest in having all the freight handled from this new northern area, however, due to uncertainty with the Tasmanian freight market, it is unknown when this may occur.
