NSW Aviation Attraction Fund

Thank you for your interest in the NSW Aviation Attraction Fund and supporting the recovery of the NSW Visitor Economy.

The Aviation Attraction Fund is open to all domestic and international airlines servicing the state or planning to service the state. The Fund is split into three separate funding streams:

STREAM	DETAILS
1 – SYDNEY INTERNATIONAL ROUTE SUPPORT	Targeted and new airlines can apply with applications to be assessed based on Business Case and alignment to Fund criteria. This stream is jointly funded with Sydney Airport.
2 – REGIONAL NSW DOMESTIC & INTERNATIONAL ROUTE SUPPORT	This is a contestable fund with routes assessed on Business Case and alignment to Fund criteria. All applications through this stream must have airport support and joint funding.
3 – NSW CONTESTABLE FUND	This is a contestable fund to supplement or fund Business Cases that do not qualify for steam 1 or 2. All applications are assessed based on the Business Case and alignment to Destination NSW Criteria. Airlines applying for funding in this stream must be able to match funding (cash or value in kind), either directly from the airline or the airline’s trade partners.

Please note that all applications under Stream 1 and 2 must have support from an airport prior to application being submitted.
