® DOMESTIC AIR FREIGHT NSW
Did you know 90% of air freight is carried in the cargo holds of commercial passenger air craft? Even though the actual volume is less than road freight and sea freight, air freight generates a-lot of money for the NSW economy. Sydney airport alone handles over 50% of Australia’s international air freight and over 30% of Australia’s interstate air freight. Air freight is uplifted in freighter aircraft or passenger aircraft, most air freight that moves through Sydney Airport is carried in passenger aircraft.
Sydney airport operates under and is subject to a curfew during late evening hours and early morning hours, recently there have been high level discussions to remove or amend the Sydney airport curfew, with many arguing, late model aircraft are quieter, thus no curfew is required. Over 450 tonnes of freight can pass through Kingsford Smith Airport per year , with projections that up-to one million tonnes could move through Sydney airport by 2030. MASTER PLAN SYDNEY AIRPORT .
Future planning includes a new major airport for Sydney at Badgerys Creek, the Badgerys creek site is located on the fringes of Sydney, so being away from built up areas means the Sydney airport curfew will no longer be required and all types of aircraft will be able to come and go during the night speeding up air freight transportation services. THE NEW SYDNEY AIRPORT. The new Western Sydney airport is scheduled to open in 2026
