Airservices Australia Releases November Australian Aviation Network Overview

Airservices Australia has released its Australian Aviation Network Overview report for November 2024.

Highlights include:

• In November 2024, the Australian aviation network recorded a three per cent decrease in daily flights compared to the previous month driven by a seasonal dip in domestic traffic. However, double-digit growth this month from several international airlines is a positive signal of increasing capacity ahead of a busy summer holiday season.
• Based on the latest available data from the Bureau of Infrastructure and Transport Research Economics (BITRE), the cancellation rate in October was the lowest it has been since 2021 and about half the rate of the same time last year.
• Weather disruptions intensified along the East Coast in the second half of November and are expected to remain the key challenge throughout this summer.
• Airservices service performance is continuing to improve. In November, only 0.1 per cent of total network flight delays were attributed to Airservices. Overall, air traffic service variations reached their lowest levels since commencing reporting on these metrics in 2022.
• We are focused on maintaining this momentum and have been preparing for the summer holiday period. Additional layers of resilience are being built into rosters with standby arrangement in key locations, and operational coordination with stakeholders has been strengthened.
