flag Australia’s 2026 aviation reforms, including a new regulator and compensation rules, may raise ticket prices, airlines warn.

flag Australia’s airlines warn that upcoming 2026 aviation reforms, including a new regulator and industry levy, could raise ticket prices. flag The plan introduces mandatory compensation like food and accommodation for flight disruptions, enforced by a new Aviation Consumer Protection Authority and ombudsman. flag Airlines argue the rules are overly complex, duplicate existing ACCC oversight, and ignore delays from external factors like border control. flag While the government says self-regulation failed and cites international models, critics question the need for a new agency and its impact on costs and productivity.
