商業 · Sydney airport openingWestern Sydney airport arrival: First Auckland flights operate, but rail link isn't open文字 2026年10月27日 上午2:44 [UTC]觀看逐字稿0:07Air New Zealand has brought Western Sydney its first international passengers.0:10Sydney's new airport now has an overseas connection alongside its domestic services.0:15But passengers are arriving before the airport's rail link is ready.0:18The immediate test is how much of the promised network passengers can use and how0:22they reach the terminal.0:23Cargo flights began on July twenty-sixth.0:26Jetstar opened passenger services on October twenty-five th, flying to the Gold0:30Coast.0:30Then, on October twenty-sixth, Air New Zealand flight NZ160 ,5 arrived from0:36Auckland, New Zealand, Flight NZ160 ,6 .0:39Subsequently departed for Auckland, completing the inaugural international rotation.0:43That return flight has happened.0:45Its advertised departure was eight fifty five in the morning, but that timetable0:49doesn't tell us when it actually took off.0:51The completed arrival and departure were both on Monday, October twenty-sixth.0:55The Auckland arrival was Monday morning, followed by a stopover and the return0:58departure.0:59The exact touchdown and takeoff minutes haven't been confirmed.1:02Air New Zealand's announced pattern is three return services a week on Mondays,1:06Wednesdays, and Fridays.1:07Wednesday, October28 is therefore the next scheduled operating day.1:12Seven airlines have signed on to the airport.1:14Though most haven't started their routes, Singapore Airlines is expected in1:18November.1:18Viet Jet, Fiji Airways, and Qatar Airways are part of the planned expansion.1:22Nadi Ho Chi Minh City and Doha are among the prospective destinations.1:26Those plans would broaden the airport's reach considerably.1:28For passengers booking now, the dependable starting point is the airline's actual1:32timetable, with further international launches still ahead.1:35The first domestic service was sold out with a reported one hundred and eighty-eight1:39passengers aboard.1:40Hundreds gathered to watch Jetstar's departure for the Gold Coast.1:43The destination airport also confirmed welcoming the flight.1:46So the opening was more than a scheduled event.1:48Jetstar says the flight departed at eleven in the morning.1:51Takeoff was reportedly just before eleven thirty.1:54Those may describe different moments, such as leaving the gate and becoming1:57airborne, but nobody has explained the difference.1:59They don't prove a delay.2:01Advance opening schedules also listed a Gold Coast return and a Melbourne departure.2:05Those entries tell passengers what was planned.2:07They don't confirm that each flight subsequently operated.2:10The new airport sits at Badgery's Creek, about forty-five kilometers from Sydney's2:14central business district.2:15It's also called Nancy Birdwalton Airport.2:18Sydney Kingsford Smith is a separate airport, and St.2:20Mary's is the interchange passengers use for the new airport's bus connection.2:24Drivers have a new toll, free approach.2:26The16 kilometer M12 was completed in March.2:29Some early passengers described easy access, parking and check-in.2:33Saris and Mohammed Jamil, traveling from Denham Court, had a different experience.2:37They said limited signs made the airport difficult to find.2:40Buses and a free shuttle provide the main public transport connection with St.2:44Mary's.2:44The airport metro is still unfinished.2:46Its passenger opening date remains unclear, leaving travelers without cars dependent2:50on a road connection for the final part of their journey.2:53Julie Lundmark and a friend arrived on Jetstar Flight JQ three hundred and seventy2:57three and realized after landing that they were at Western Sydney.3:00Their car was parked at Sydney Airport.3:02She hoped a friend could drive them back, estimating that journey at about two3:06hours.3:06That was her estimate rather than a standard transfer time.3:09Another passenger arriving from Auckland initially confused Western Sydney with3:13Western Australia and thought he was going to Perth.3:15For those travelers, the airport name changed the ground journey they expected to3:19make.3:19The airport can operate twenty-four hours a day, giving airlines more flexibility3:23than curfew constrained Kingsford Smith.3:26That operating window creates room for growth.3:28The scale of the airport's ambitions, though, stretches decades beyond this opening3:32week's flights.3:32Chief Executive Simon Hickey projects traffic approaching ten million passengers a3:36year in the early to mid-2030 s.3:39His longer-term forecast reaches eighty two million annually in the twenty sixties.3:43That larger airport would need more terminals and another runway.3:46Hickey also links up to about eight thousand five hundred precinct jobs to reaching3:50ten million annual passengers.3:52The airport's projection of more than two hundred and fifty destinations by the end3:56of twenty twenty-seven is also an ambition.3:58It's unclear how many would be direct flights rather than connections.4:01The government says additional airport capacity could strengthen airline competition4:05and put downward pressure on fares.4:07Passengers will have to judge those benefits as more services begin.4:11For now, the completed Auckland rotation adds an overseas connection while the wider4:15network is still developing.4:16Federal infrastructure and transport minister Catherine King has also acknowledged4:20aircraft noise impacts on local communities.4:22As airlines make use of the airports round, the clock operating window, residents4:27around the flight paths will share in the consequences of that growth.閱讀文章事件時間軸HeyDex短片 ↗誰報導了什麼多家媒體報導的要點The inaugural flight was sold out2 家媒體僅一家媒體報導的要點23僅ABC Tasmania報導The airport opened to passengers10月24日 下午8:21 UTCScheduled departure of
