What eats Sydney airport's capacity?

Permalink | 16/07/10 | Categories: Airlines, Airports, Statistics | by: A Sharp English (UK)

I understand that 15% of the capacity at Sydney Kingsford Smith airport is taken up with the shuttle to Canberra. There are flights every 40 minutes on this 250 km sector.

The airport is capacity constrained, and plans for a replacement or for additional capacity are not close to fruition.

A high speed rail link sounds like a good idea, for all sorts of reasons.

Does anyone know the economics of those flights? A 250 km sector is pretty expensive to fly!
