Proposed fee hike for regional NSW air travel
What ELSE can Macquarie levi a fee for at the airport... Mind you, is $0.22 really going to be noticed?

Won't REX need to impose a similar price hike on their ticket prices in the near future after their recent order of 20+ new aircraft?

Not precisely fair for Rex and Aeropelican pax.
So all the competing regional airlines against the majors Qantas and Virgin Blue get slugged with extra fees because they dont have a specific contract with SACL. It may only be 22cents, but that is per passenger. Rex has 1300 flights per week and approx 50% are in NSW. So 650 flights at 34 seats and an average load factor of 65%, gives you 750,000 pax per year. Thats $165,000 per year. And what 20 + aircraft order? |

Does anyone know what the current tariff per passenger is for Qantas, Virgin Blue and Q-Link, and how does this compare to the new structure for Rex, Aeropelican and I presume Tiger?
Mind you, given it's the first increase since 2001, that equates to a rise of just under 3c per passenger per year since the last increase, so I personally don't think it's that unreasonable.
