Australian government targets Qantas, Virgin for Sydney Airport slot limitations, introduces legislation to enhance competition.
The Australian government has introduced legislation to enhance competition at Sydney Airport by targeting major airlines Qantas and Virgin for hoarding landing slots. The law would allow civil penalties for airlines blocking access to these slots, promote transparency in slot usage, and improve access for new entrants and regional airlines. Additionally, it introduces a recovery period for major disruptions, potentially leading to reduced airfares and better travel experiences for passengers.
