Sydney Airport Terminal Consolidation Proposal


Destination NSW CEO Sandra Chipchase welcomed the announcement by Sydney Airport to consolidate domestic and international terminals into two "alliance based" precincts.

Ms Chipchase said Destination NSW supported Sydney Airport’s airline-alliance precinct plan as a positive strategy to enhance efficiency and customer experience.

“Air travel is the lifeblood of Australia’s $94 billion tourism industry, so we welcome any initiative to reinforce Sydney’s position as the entry to Australia,” Ms Chipchase said.

"This is a landmark plan to provide Australia's gateway city with seamless connections, improve the visitor experience and reduce turnaround times.

“I congratulate Sydney Airport on this bold initiative and look forward to providing input to their program of extensive community and stakeholder consultations.

Ms Chipchase said that Destination NSW also recently joined forces with Sydney Airport to boost tourism, attract new airlines and increase airline services to Sydney as part of a new Visitor Economy Partnership Agreement.

“These latest initiatives contribute to our goal to double current overnight visitor expenditure to NSW by 2020.”
