Airservices Australia releases October Australian Aviation Network Overview

Airservices Australia has released its Australian Aviation Network Overview report for October 2023. 

After a period of rapid recovery, the rate of growth in the Australian aviation network has slowed in recent months as we approach pre-pandemic traffic levels. At the same time, our performance as an industry has continued to improve against most metrics.

While our operating environment remains turbulent, we are seeing faster-than-expected international recovery since our forecast in June. This indicates the broader impact of ongoing net migrations and a resilient demand for international travel.

The Australian Aviation Network Overview is updated monthly.
