Meanwhile, in millionaire’s monopoly land...
The owners of the Canberra airport have called for government intervention on flight cancellations. The government should set “national standards” for cancellation rates and investigate shortfalls. This is typical for the owners: They’ve previously called for the government not to cutback on public service travel.
My suggested solution is to simply schedule flights e.g. Canberra/Sydney on which public servants permanently travel back and forwards as a job. This would bolster the profits of owners at both ends.
After all, the purpose of these airports is to siphon taxpayers and gouge private citizens to ensure millionaires make more millions. Millionaires are entitled, in a free market, to a reasonable return for the enormous risks they take in buying monopoly airports and politicians.
