AAHK extends relief package by 2 months

The body continued its support to the aviation industry amidst the pandemic.

Airport Authority Hong Kong (AAHK) further extended the airport community relief package by two months to the end of March 2022, continuing its support against the prolonged impact of COVID-19 on the aviation industry.

Various fee waiver or concession policies will continue, including full waiver of parking charges for idle passenger aircraft and airbridge fees, reduction of passenger aircraft landing charges, fee reduction related to ramp handling, maintenance and airside vehicles, rental reduction for terminal tenants covering lounges and offices, fees wavier for terminal licensees including ancillary passenger services, commercial services counters and cross-border transport operator, 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 rentals were waived. The AAHK also waived the base rent for those that remain open to provide essential services.

Relief measures will be adjusted to respond to the changing circumstances accordingly.
