Share

Sydney Airport has welcomed the 2015-16 Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) Airport Monitoring Report, which highlight its increase in its overall quality of service rating and ongoing aeronautical investment during a time of significant passenger growth.

Airport managing director and CEO, Kerrie Mather, believes that the results reflect the gateway’s strong collaboration with stakeholders and an industry-leading approach to improve service standards.

“I am delighted the ACCC has recognised our efforts to introduce outcomes focused service level agreements that respond to the needs of our airlines and enhance the passenger experience,” she enthuses.

“The year 2015-16 was of significant investment across the airport with a major focus in our terminals and on ground transport enhancements in and around the airport.

“We’ve invested A$3.4 billion in airport improvements since 2002, and plan to invest a further A$1.3 billion in the next five years.

“This investment is delivering improved quality of service ratings during a time of unprecedented passenger growth and we look forward to building on this momentum in the future.”

Sydney Airport’s recent investment was driven by new international airline agreements executed in 2015, which focused on improving service standards through measures developed in partnership with airlines.

The ACCC states that the agreement was a step forward and acknowledges Sydney Airport’s investment in additional aprons, security fences, Departures and emigration upgrades, security and gate lounge redevelopment at T1 during the 2015-16 year.

It also highlights the airport’s investment in bag drop facilities at the Domestic precinct, and improvements to airport taxiways.

Mather says that it is particularly pleasing to see that the airport’s progress is being recognised, especially as more than 200 active projects continue to be implemented across the airport precinct.
