NEWCASTLE AIRPORT'S RECORD DAY

NEWCASTLE Airport has broken its highest-ever daily passenger record for the second consecutive year.

Friday, November 23 2018 saw more than 5,270 passengers travel through Newcastle Airport. The record-breaking single day result was achieved on the first day of the Coates Hire Newcastle 500, which draws thousands of visitors to the region annually.
 
Contributing to the year-on-year increase was 26 additional flights provided by Virgin Australia and a new domestic direct route servicing Adelaide.
 
22,202 travellers passed through the Airport over the five-day period including the inaugural international flights servicing Auckland.
 
Newcastle Airport CEO Dr Peter Cock said Newcastle Airport is thrilled to bring more travellers than ever to the Hunter to support the success of major regional events.
