Darwin City Council, which is embroiled in a dispute with the airport over what it says is more than $1 million owed in rate equivalent payments, said that despite DIA owner Airport Development Group’s (ADG) assertion earlier this week, no such offer has yet been forthcoming.

In its latest Airport Monitoring Report released this week, the ACCC found that Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth Airports all returned to profit in the 2022–23 financial year, with boosts to aeronautical revenues as well as income from car parking and landside access.

The project, which received $9 million in funding divided between state and federal governments and $3 million from the City of Greater Bendigo, features a terminal four times larger than the old building, a 183-space car park, and an apron capable of accommodating two 70-seat aircraft.

The tracker, which shows approximate wait times for security at all three terminals, refreshes every 60 seconds and will allow passengers to plan their arrival at the airport ahead of time. It comes as the March quarter delivers a 93.7 per cent post-COVID passenger recovery compared to Q1 2019.
