The ACCC welcomes the opportunity to provide input to the development of a new aviation White Paper. A competitive airline sector is vital to meet the needs of consumers and the economy more broadly, especially for a large country as geographically dispersed as Australia. Rivalry between airlines can deliver more routes, a greater choice of products, cheaper airfares, more reliable services and better customer service. On many of these measures, international air passenger services to and from Australia generally delivered improved outcomes in the years leading up to the pandemic.

Aviation is a hard-to-decarbonize sector of the transport industry due to the stringent mass and volume requirements for aviation fuel. The high energy content of liquid jet fuel, both per unit mass (specific energy) and per unit volume (energy density), makes it difficult to replace. Significant emphasis has been placed on drop-in Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAFs) to reduce emissions without sacrificing aircraft performance. But SAFs emit carbon dioxide (CO2) when combusted (carbon capture during production reduces life-cycle emissions) and their uptake has fallen short of expectations due to their high cost, limited supply, and concerns about the land-use impacts of biofuels.
