The sky is the limit
Our city’s credentials may be spectacular, but we do not rest on our laurels.
The main objective of Aviation Business Development is to forge a visionary, long-term strategy that will deliver airline capacity in line with demand, introduce new markets, identify business opportunities, and develop additional revenue streams.
Sydney Airport continually strives to be the number one airport in Australia. Our goal is to become one of the leading airports in the world.
Australia’s only global city needs a world-class airport
Aviation Business Development engages with airlines, catering to the 35.6 million business and leisure passengers that flow through our terminals annually and hosting the tens of thousands who come to greet or say farewell daily.
The Australian Airports Association think we are doing such a good job that they awarded us ‘Capital City Airport of the Year’ in 2010.
We mean business
Our city’s iconic beauty and economic importance ensures Sydney Airport continues to flourish as the 27th busiest in the world.
Our airport benefits from Sydney’s cachet and powerhouse allure: Australia’s largest city boasts the presence of global corporate giants, one of the fastest growing financial markets in Australasia, and is home to the country’s dominant service sector.
In turn, Sydney Airport gives back to the city’s economy - perfectly positioned only 8km from the Sydney Central Business District. The airport precinct employs 16,000 workers on site alone - and as New South Wales’s busiest transport exchange we keep ground transport humming including rail, buses, taxis and shuttles. In this symbiotic, win/win relationship, aviation activity contributes a whopping $16.5 billion to the state in both direct and flow on impact.
We have the big picture
We don’t just let our passengers pass us by.
Aviation Business Development analyses travel patterns of more than 100,000 daily passengers passing through the doors of the Domestic and International Terminals to provide our airline partners with invaluable insights such as:
- How many international passengers are direct visitors to our iconic city?
- Inbound and outbound travel patterns.
- Purpose of visit for international travellers.
- International nationality split.
- New route opportunities.
- How has this changed over the last decade?
