(23 Mar 2021) The Airport Authority of Hong Kong has extended the airport community relief package for another two months to the end of May 2021.
The continuing waiver or reduction of various fees for the aviation industry from April to May 2021 includes the full waiver of parking charges for idle passenger aircraft and airbridge fees; reduction of passenger aircraft landing charges; fees reduction related to ramp handling, maintenance and airside vehicles; as well as rental reduction for terminal tenants covering lounges and offices.
It also includes the waiver of fees for terminal licencees including ancillary passenger services, commercial services counters and cross-border transport operators; and concessions on fees for aviation support services such as into-plane fuelling, aircraft maintenance and inflight catering services.
The rental relief for retail and catering tenants will also continue. Most of the shops and restaurants in the terminal have suspended business and their rental is waived. For those that remain open to provide essential services, the base rent is waived.
The Airport Authority has said that it will closely monitor the operating environment and relief measures may be adjusted from time to time depending on air traffic and the business recovery situation at HKIA.
