Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Covid-19: Impact on Aviation

Mr. Ray Gray:

The current experience is that the airport is very empty. What people will immediately see upon arrival is a great deal of space and all of the necessary PPE, decals, hand sanitisers, masks and everything required to facilitate social distancing and ensure the protection of passengers and staff.

As such, travellers will have a relatively normal journey in a virtually empty airport for most of the time. Instead of having around 4,000 people going through terminal one in a busy hour in the morning, an extremely busy time now would be approaching 1,000. That is probably for one hour in the day.
