Australian airports are preparing for one of the most busy travel days a year as the Easter break.
It is expected that an increase in traffic in the movement of passengers, as many travelers combine the long weekend in the additional week of holidays, while the school breaks are also ongoing for most of the country.
It is possible that Thursday, April 17, is the most crowded local travel days in the country during the school holiday period, followed by the Great Friday (April 18).
“We expect the very crowded Easter period in airports all over Australia, so we want to mention the passengers by planning the future and preparing in the event of any unexpected disorders,” said Simon Westway.
He said: “We have seen several incidents that recently include annoying passengers and will not be tolerated with this type of behavior. All airline employees deserve to be treated with patience and respect.” “There are a lot of infrastructure promotions that occur in airports, so the flight to your local airport may have changed.
“More than 26 billion dollars are invested in Australian airports over the next decade to ensure that the infrastructure and facilities can deal with the increasing demand for travel,” Wastawi continued. “These construction projects are already in many of our regions, whether they are peripheral expansion, luggage promotions, or runway building.
He said: “In the end, these improvements will increase customer experiences further and stimulate the advanced tourism market constantly.”
