Runway extension will create significant direct economic benefit for New Zealand and cut traveling time by up to 30 percent
- Connect Wellington (Wellington Airport campaign)
- Extending Wellington Airport’s runway will deliver up to $1.75 billion in direct economic benefits to New Zealand’s economy by 2060 and slash international travelling time by up to a third according to a new report. The economic impact report undertaken by consultancy, EY, shows the direct economic benefit to the Wellington region, between 2020 and 2060, will be up to $684 million in today’s dollars. Wellington Airport Chief Executive, Steve Sanderson, says “the extension would enable the next generation wide-bodied jets to link Wellington with the rapidly expanding Asian market and to North America, growing the number of international visitors to New Zealand and increasing our ability to offer new and more accessible visitor experiences.”
