From Avalon Airport to the Great Ocean Road, Maverick is swapping the terminal for the surf!
After spending his days bringing smiles, comfort, and plenty of tail wags to passengers at Avalon Airport Melbourne, Maverick, the much-loved mascot of our Pawsitive Program, decided it’s time for a well-earned day off. And what better way to spend it than exploring one of Victoria’s greatest natural attractions? The Great Ocean Road!
Instead of greeting passengers at the terminal, Maverick swapped airport floors for sandy beaches, ocean air and a little adventure proving that even a hard-working airport dog deserves time to relax and explore.
Avalon Airport Melbourne is perfectly positioned to connect travellers not only with Melbourne, but with the spectacular Surf Coast and the Great Ocean Road, one of Australia’s most iconic touring routes.
For Maverick, it’s the perfect backyard.
From Avalon, it’s just a short journey before the landscape transforms into rugged coastline, beautiful beaches, coastal towns and some of Victoria’s most spectacular scenery. And that’s exactly what makes Avalon different: an airport that puts travellers within easy reach of some of Victoria’s biggest attractions.
So while passengers might’ve missed Maverick at the terminal for the day, there’s no doubt he made plenty of new friends along the coast.
Maverick’s message to travellers?
Fly Avalon. Land on the doorstep of the Great Ocean Road. And don’t forget to bring your sense of adventure.
