You will probably find the airport will have to close as the winds are shocking at that time of year, and it will happen the wind can last for days even a week at a time.

Glad I am not booked on any flights during June to September.
There are plenty of single runway airports in the world, or places like LHR where there are two (or more) parallel runways. Why is it so dangerous in Sydney that it will effect passenger safety?
