UPRT Australia- Transforming Aviation’s Greatest Risk into Its Greatest Asset
Speaking to media at the launch of international flights on Monday, WSI CEO Simon Hickey said the new airport is expected to reach its current maximum capacity of 10 million annual passengers within the next decade, with plans to expand as needed.
Flight JQ140 left Christchurch at 9:13am aboard the A320 VH-X3J, arriving at Kingsford Smith shortly before 10:30am local time before returning as JQ141 at 12:30pm. The service, operating four times per week, will add almost 40,000 seats annually between Sydney and the South Island.
Air traffic control staff resourcing and visibility from Sydney’s ATC tower are both being examined as part of the investigation into the two near misses in August – one between Qantas and Virgin 737s on the 17th, and the other between a Jetstar A320 and QantasLink Q400 on the 25th.

Flight NZ165 was the first to touch down at WSI, landing ahead of schedule at just before 7:30am aboard the A320neo ZK-NHC, with the return NZ166 service departing for Auckland just after 9:15am. It comes after Jetstar began domestic services on Sunday.
Speaking to Australian Aviation at WSI on Sunday, CEO Stephanie Tully said both Western Sydney and Bali are important markets to Jetstar, and that the airline would expect strong demand. It comes as the new airport has finally opened to passengers, with two Jetstar flights taking off on Sunday.
