  • Airline and Aircraft Movement Growth “Airports...Are a Vital Part of Ensuring That Our Nation Is Able to Be Connected to the Rest of the World...”
    CHAPTER 5 AIRLINE AND AIRCRAFT MOVEMENT GROWTH “AIRPORTS...ARE A VITAL PART OF ENSURING THAT OUR NATION IS ABLE TO BE CONNECTED TO THE REST OF THE WORLD...” THE HON WARREN TRUSS, DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER 5 Airline and aircraft movement growth The volume of passenger and aircraft movements at Canberra Airport has declined since 2009/2010. In 2013/2014 Canberra Airport will handle approximately 2.833 million passengers across approximately 60,000 aircraft movements, its lowest recorded passenger volume since 2007/2008. The prospects for a future return to growth however are strong. Canberra Airport expects a restoration of volume growth in 2015/2016 and retains confidence in the future of the aviation market in Canberra, across Australia, and particularly the Asia Pacific region. Over the next 20 years passenger numbers at Canberra Airport are projected to reach 9 million passengers per annum with some 153,000 aircraft movements in 2033/2034. Canberra Airport, with its extensive infrastructure upgrades in recent years, is well positioned to meet forecast demand with only minor additional infrastructure and capitalise on growth opportunities in the regional, domestic and international aviation markets. 5.1 OVERVIEW Globally, the aviation industry has experienced enormous change over the past 15 years including deregulation of the airline sector, operational and structural changes in the post-September 11 2001 environment, oil price shocks, the collapse of airlines as a result of the global financial crisis (GFC), and the rise of new global players in the Middle East at the expense of international carriers from traditional markets. Likewise, Australia has seen enormous change in its aviation sector – the demise of Ansett, the emergence of Virgin Australia, Jetstar, and Tiger Airways, the subsequent repositioning of two out of three of these new entrant airlines and, particularly in the Canberra context, the collapse of regional airlines.

  • Regulation of Air Transport in Nsw Public Consultation
    REGULATION OF AIR TRANSPORT IN NSW PUBLIC CONSULTATION COMMENTS BY REGIONAL EXPRESS Regional Express Holdings Limited (Rex) is the listed entity which owns two regional airlines operating intra New South Wales scheduled services – Regional Express (Rex) and Air Link. It also has a charter and freight subsidiary Pel – Air Aviation which operates contracted air freight services to regional centres as well as passenger and freight charter services. Rex is Australia’s largest independent regional airline and the largest regional airline operating services intra New South Wales. Rex operates thirteen Saab 340 aircraft between Sydney and fifteen regional centres on some 550 flights weekly. Air Link operates two Beech B1900D, five Piper Chieftain and three Cessna 310R aircraft on services linking Sydney with eight regional communities some via a hub in Dubbo. In New South Wales, Rex operates services on four competitive, unregulated routes as well as being the licensed sole operator on eleven routes. Air Link operates on one competitive unregulated route and is the licensed sole operator on seven intrastate routes. The comments in this response cover the views of both Rex and Air Link. Rex has been very successful in developing all of the route markets on its network achieving substantial passenger growth on the back of a significant reduction in average fares. The average fare on the Rex network today is 40 percent below that which applied four years ago. Even adding in the fuel surcharge necessary to alleviate the impact of spiralling fuel prices (which only recently reduced by $3.00 to $24.00 per sector) Rex’s average fares are 20 percent below the levels which applied four years ago.

  • Canberra Airport Response to the Productivity Commission's Draft
    CANBERRA AIRPORT RESPONSE TO THE PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION’S DRAFT REPORT ON THE REVIEW OF PRICE REGULATION OF AIRPORT SERVICES OCTOBER 2006 - PUBLIC SUBMISSION - Introduction The Productivity Commission’s draft report on the review of price regulation of airport services (‘draft report’) has concluded that the arguments for continued formal regulation of Canberra Airport are “finely balanced”. Canberra Airport considers the case presented in its July 2006 submission to the Commission for its exemption from the monitoring regime in the next regulatory period to be compelling and worthy of further consideration. However, with the benefit of reading arguments contained in the Commission’s draft report, Canberra Airport has recognised that it can provide further information to support the case for exempting Canberra Airport from price monitoring. Section 1 of this submission provides such additional information for the Commission’s consideration. Canberra Airport understands that the Commission’s draft recommendation to retain formal regulation of Canberra Airport may be largely attributable to misleading and factually incorrect statements made in some submissions against Canberra Airport. Section 2 of this submission serves to correct these statements. The third and final section of this submission deals with other matters raised in the draft report. It is noted, however, that these matters are of secondary importance to the appropriate classification of Canberra Airport as a non-price monitored airport. ____________________________________________________ 1 Review of Price Regulation of Airport Services Canberra Airport’s Response to the Productivity Commission’s Draft Report 1. Additional information supporting the exemption of Canberra Airport from a further period of monitoring. 1.1 Canberra Airport – an uncomfortable fit in the group of regulated airports.

  • For Personal Use Only
    29 AUGUST 2014 MEDIA RELEASE REX - AUSTRALIA’S MOST PROFITABLE PASSENGER AIRLINE GROUP FOR 3rd CONSECUTIVE YEAR At its full financial year (FY) results presentation yesterday, Regional Express Holdings Ltd (Rex) announced a Profit Before Tax (PBT) of $10.7 million for the year ended 30 June 2014. This represents a drop of about 45% from the prior year, but is slightly improved from the half year when it reported a PBT reduction of 59.8%. Commenting on the results, Rex Executive Chairman Mr Lim Kim Hai said, “The Australian economy continued to deteriorate in the period under review and resulted in 38,000 fewer Rex passengers, or a reduction of 3.4%.” He added that the year also saw record average fuel prices. “On top of that, we had the burden of increased government taxes in the form of the carbon tax and a significant increase in the fuel levy to fund the Civil Aviation Safety Authority. All of these taxes implemented by the previous Federal Government just add more nails in the coffin of the aviation industry,” Mr Lim said. "As foreshadowed in my earlier warnings to the Federal Government, aviation in Australia is in deep crisis with Qantas and Virgin Australia losing a combined $4.4 billion at pre-tax level for FY14. Regional aviation is even harder hit - we saw another two carriers collapse in the last nine months." "The environment is so toxic that incredible as it sounds, Rex is not only the most profitable passenger airline group for the third consecutive year, it has more accumulated PBT than Qantas or Virgin Australia over the last nine years." "This clearly demonstrates the prolonged and endemic crisis that is gripping Australian aviation, and I call on the Abbott government to urgently start implementing the concrete initiatives promised in the Coalition’s Policy for Aviation issued in August 2013 prior to the federal election one year ago.
