CANBERRA Airport managing director Stephen Byron has slammed the pattern of cancellations to the capital as “unacceptably high”.
Byron told the Canberra Times “we are concerned that the pattern of cancellation rates on the Canberra to Sydney route seems to now be showing up as customers choosing to use other modes of transport”.
In Nov, cancellations on the Sydney-Canberra route hit 5.1%, according to figures from the Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development.
Meanwhile Byron flagged interest in having a low-cost airline such as Jetstar flying between Sydney and Canberra.
“It’s the largest route that doesn’t have a low-cost carrier on it in the Australian market,” he said.
