Australia’s international traffic is on the rise with the Bureau of Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Economics (BITRE) reporting a 10.8% year-on-year improvement in international passenger numbers for Sep-2010, to 2.3 million. This follows strong month-on-month growth rates of more than 9% recorded since Sep-2009, except for Apr-2010 and May-2010 where the growth rate was more moderate.
