Airways NZ profit lifts to $10.6m Hamilton International Airport has reported an after-tax surplus of $3.8 million for the year to the end of June, up from $2.7 million the year before.
Chairman of airport owner Waikato Regional Airport, Jerry Rickman, said the company had reduced debt during the year from $21.2m to $17.9m from the proceeds of land sales.
Revenue had increased over all key revenue lines with the exception of duty free store concession income. Operating revenues of $7.13m compared to $5.96m the previous year.

Rickman last week took a swipe at Air NZ, after it said it would stop flying the Hamilton to Coolangatta and Sydney route from March next year. It also plans to cut its Hamilton-Brisbane flights from three a week to twice weekly. ...goes on
