Individual organisation descriptions<br />

<strong>Christchurch</strong> International Airport Ltd<br />

The international gateway to the South Island, <strong>Christchurch</strong><br />

International Airport Ltd (CIAL) hosted just over six million<br />

passengers in the <strong>2010</strong> year, arriving or departing on over 79,000<br />

aircraft servicing destinations as close as Timaru and as distant as<br />

Tokyo.<br />

Ten airlines arrive from ten international and 16 domestic airports,<br />

meaning a wide range of direct services available to the city’s<br />

travellers.<br />

The company is embarking on a major project to build a new<br />

combined domestic and international terminal. With large<br />

passenger lounges, extra seating, improved passenger flows and<br />

enhanced retail and cafe areas, the new terminal will offer a top<br />

class airport experience.<br />

The company is jointly owned by <strong>Christchurch</strong> <strong>City</strong> Holdings<br />

Limited (75 per cent) and the New Zealand Government (25 per<br />

cent). The primary activity of the company is to own and operate<br />

<strong>Christchurch</strong> International Airport efficiently and on sound<br />

business principles for the benefit of both commercial and<br />

non-commercial aviation users and in accordance with the terms of<br />

the aerodrome licence which defines standards and conditions laid<br />

down by the Ministry of Transport.<br />

Nature and scope of activities<br />

CIAL operates the airport for the benefit of commercial and<br />

non-commercial aviation users, and in accordance with its<br />

aerodrome licence.<br />

The company arranges for the design, provision and maintenance<br />

of runways, taxiways, turnouts and aprons in co-operation with the<br />

Airways Corporation of New Zealand and other airport users. It also<br />

seeks to earn revenue by providing services and facilities meeting<br />

the needs of air travellers.<br />

In addition to its primary business of serving the aviation industry<br />

and its customers, the company actively markets <strong>Christchurch</strong>,<br />

Canterbury and the South Island as a major destination for overseas<br />

visitors.<br />

Policies and objectives relating to ownership and control<br />

CIAL is considered a regional strategic asset. The <strong>Council</strong>’s policy is<br />

for it to be operated in a commercial manner, but also in a way that<br />

benefits the region as a whole.<br />

Through a Statement of Intent, the <strong>Council</strong> establishes broad<br />

parameters reflecting the public nature of this company without<br />

inhibiting proper commercial management. To continue to do this<br />

the <strong>Council</strong> has a policy of maintaining a controlling interest in this<br />

company.<br />
