Brisbane Airport more than twice as busy as Sydney

Queensland’s decision to reshut its border to NSW has bizarrely caused Brisbane to surge past Sydney to become the country’s busiest airport by a huge margin, Australian Aviation can reveal.

The knock-on effect of Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk’s restrictions meant Brisbane clocked up 324,188 total passengers in August versus Sydney’s 129,000.

Significantly, the Queensland capital’s numbers were down only slightly from July (358,537) whereas the NSW capital’s collapsed 60 per cent (from 317,000).

Sydney was so quiet they hosted a Porsche day on 16L / 34R the other day to launch the new 2021 911 Turbo. Article Here
