I've slept overnight in Melbourne Airport, in Australia. I know you can't do this in Sydney Airport (they close). However I can't find this info for Canberra.

I've found a cheap flight that goes via Canberra overnight, and I'm quite happy sleeping on the floor if it's possible. But sleepinginairports.net doesn't have any reviews or info, and I can't find opening hours on the airport website or elsewhere. It's only recently started having international flights again, so information seems to be scarce.

Question: Can you stay in the airport overnight?

There is no information about opening hours on their website but:

  1. https://www.canberraairport.com.au/travellers/flight-information/departures/ shows no flights between midnight and 06:00.
  2. https://www.canberraairport.com.au/travellers/retail-services/dining/ restaurants seem to close at 9pm. That wouldn't make sense if the airport was open 24/7.

Seeing this, I'd wager the airport closes after last flight, and opens around 04:30~05:00.
