  • Submission 52
    The Qantas Group Submission Productivity Commission Inquiry into the Economic Regulation of Airport Services April 2011 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction The Qantas Group remains committed to a process of constructive engagement between airports and airport users in Australia. Since the introduction of light handed monitoring there has been progress with certain airports towards a more appropriate commercial negotiating approach. However, the Qantas Groups’ experience continues to indicate that reasonable commercially negotiated outcomes with airports are the exception rather than the rule. Where such agreements have been reached they are inevitably the result of protracted negotiations often taking years. Airports are natural monopolies and the current light handed monitoring approach to regulation has been ineffective in preventing the operators of major airports from exerting significant market power in the provision and pricing of airport facilities and services. Whilst the Government’s Aeronautical Pricing Principles were intended to serve as a guide for the pricing of aeronautical services at the non-monitored capital city and larger regional airports, many of these airports also exert significant market power and exhibit behaviours that are not consistent with those of service providers operating in a competitive environment. The current regulatory regime provides no disincentive at all for the major airports in charging demonstrably excessive rates for any core aviation facilities that sit outside the current light handed regime. In particular, excessive lease costs for critical infrastructure such as airline offices, lounges, hangars, maintenance facilities, check in counters, service desks and staff car parking all sit outside any protection provided by the current regime. Airlines, and indeed airports, cannot function without these facilities and yet no protection is afforded to airlines in relation to the provision of these services by airports.
