HKAA considers landing-fee cut

2/13/2009 10:24:39 AM

The Hong Kong Airport Authority said it will consider requests from airlines to cut landing fees to help carriers survive the turbulent year ahead, the Standard reported.   Some carriers have applied for discounts in addition to the 15 percent fee cut the authority introduced for all airlines in 2000.   Airlines had previously delayed paying airport fees, referring to claims that mainland carriers owe the HKAA as much as US$6.5 million.   Its 2030 masterplan is still in progress and a report from consultants will be submitted this June or July. Controversial plans for a third runway and financing will be included in the report.   CargoNewsAsia
