The Local Court can't impose a fine of that magnitude - if it's in that court it's just being prosecuted as a summary offence, with a maximum penalty of $6,600.

In my opinion the Local Court cannot impose a fine of more than 300 penalty units [$51,000] on a corporation or 60 [$10,200] on an individual when exercising Federal jurisdiction. If the prosecution wants a higher penalty, it needs to prosecute the offence in a higher court.

Watching the Dubai Airport show on Foxtel last night and seeing them invest $3 billion in a new terminal and getting an impression on how they run things, it will be pocket change to EK.
It was embarrassing to watch them struggling to get EK414 away on time last night because they were trying to beat the curfew in Sydney.

Embarrassing because they hadn't been able to plan better to meet the rules of the airport?

Or embarrassing that the airport has stupidly antiquated rules and gutless politicians who won't change them?

Surely Sydney is the only significant airport with a curfew?
Oh, sorry, no it isn't. How does Heathrow manage its curfew? Look, I can see a place for greater flexibility with the curfew around major service disruptions such as severe weather (and removing the 80ph cap), but SYD is not located for 24/7-365 service without a major impact on a big chunk of Sydney's population. |
