Regional Benefits

Lake Mac Airlines will re-establish a service that was used and loved by locals and visitors alike, in fact we expect more than 90% of our passengers will connect from or onto domestic and international flights. Sydney Airport remains NSW's primary gateway with more than 90 domestic and international destinations served meaning that Lake Mac Airlines will provide visitors with greater and faster access to our region.

​

We expect that Lake Mac Airlines will generate up to 25 direct new jobs located in Lake Macquarie and Sydney while our financial modeling indicates that Lake Mac Airlines will generate in excess of $8.8m in direct economic activity and an additional $11.2m in indirect economic benefits in our first year, meaning that the Lake Macquarie and Newcastle region will benefit from $20m in economic activity that will continue to grow as our services expand.

​

While we are excited to offer locals with a fast and comfortable option when travelling to Sydney Airport and beyond, we are even more thrilled about the opportunity to carry thousands of interstate and international visitors to the Lake Macquarie and Newcastle region when they travel for business or leisure.

​

Regional tourism along with key industries including mining, manufacturing and healthcare will all benefit from the improved access that Lake Mac Airlines will deliver for our region.
