Narrated by comedian Susie Youssef, the first episode of Airport 24/7 airs on Network 10 at 7:30pm this Thursday, with parent company Paramount saying it offers “exclusive access to restricted areas and high-pressure moments”.
Speaking at the airport on Wednesday, the Transport Minister said that in order to minimise noise impact on surrounding communities, reciprocal runway operations (RRO) will be prioritised at night, with a specific noise abatement procedure employed, when it is safe to do so.
The new 190.24kW system, described as “a significant step towards the airport’s goal of achieving 50 per cent renewable energy use by 2030”, will reduce energy consumption in the terminal by 17 per cent and help Sunshine Coast Airport meet its scope 2 emissions targets, said CEO Chris Mills.
The runway, which according to WSI will be able to serve 10 million passengers per year at its opening in 2026, is rated for up to Code F aircraft including the 747-8 and A380. It has been under construction since bulk earthworks contracts were awarded in 2019.
The airport has joined Adelaide, Brisbane, Parafield, and Sydney Airports at Level 4 under ACI’s Airport Carbon Accreditation scheme, with Newcastle the only Australian airport to rank higher.
Commencing on 21 October, Jetstar will fly three times per week return year-round between Newcastle and Denpasar using its A321neo LR fleet, reducing the need for Hunter region residents to travel to Sydney for Bali flights.
