* Note: Many ships bound for the eastern Australian states passed through Fremantle. The Fremantle passenger lists include all those passengers who disembarked in Fremantle. They often also include all other passengers who travelled further on the same ship and disembarked in other Australian or overseas ports.
From 1944 the passenger lists include those for aircraft arriving at Perth airport. The lists for Qantas flights usually include brief details for those enroute for other airports. The lists for other airlines only have details for those leaving the aircraft in Perth.
