Aviation landing and airport parking fees at Armidale Regional Airport have been reduced to encourage general aviation users and visitors to the region.
“We are excited to announce that General Aviation landing fees and aircraft parking fees have been significantly reduced to encourage general aviation users and visitors to Armidale,” said Armidale Regional Council Mayor Sam Coupland.
“By reducing landing and aircraft parking fees, we’re making our regional airport more attractive to aviation users, which will increase traffic and stimulate local economic growth.
“Lower fees will encourage more people flying into our region, bringing in tourists who hopefully stay longer in our beautiful city.”
Light aircraft landing fees at Armidale Regional Airport have been reduced from $17 to $10 and light aircraft grass parking fees have been reduced from $34 to $10.
Angela Garvey, Manager at Armidale Regional Airport, said the fee reductions were “significant” considering Armidale Regional Airport was a security controlled airport.
“We want to promote the New England Region as a wonderful destination for a weekend or week-long stay and reducing aviation landing and parking fees is a great way to encourage aviation users to fly into Armidale and stay here longer,” said Ms Garvey.
