Chapter 4 | Access to regional air servicesThere were five airlines in both 2000 (Table 4.15) and 2005 (Table 4.16) serving regionalair routes within Western Australia. Between 2000 and 2005, Ansett Airlines, BroomeAirlines, Northwest Regional and Western Airlines ceased serving regional air routeswithin Western Australia. However, in the same period, Air North, Golden EagleAviation, Great Western Airlines and Virgin Blue commenced providing intrastate airservices on regional air routes in Western Australia.Table 4.15 Airlines serving regional airports in Western Australia, 2000Airlines in WAAnsett Airlines of AustraliaBroome AirlinesMaroomba AirlinesNational Jet Systems Pty LtdNorthwest RegionalQantas AirwaysSkippers AviationSkywest Airlines Pty LtdWestern AirlinesSource: BITRE time series estimates.Regional airports servedArgyle, Broome, Derby-Curtin, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, Karratha,Kununurra, Learmonth, Meekatharra, Newman and Port HedlandBroome, Fitzroy Crossing, Halls Creek and KununurraBusselton, Margaret River and Mount MagnetChristmas Island, Cocos IslandBroome, Fitzroy Crossing, Halls Creek, Karratha, Learmonth andPort HedlandBroome, Kalgoorlie, Karratha, Paraburdoo and Port HedlandBroome, Busselton, Derby-Curtin and Margaret RiverAlbany, Carnarvon, Esperance, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, Laverton,Learmonth, Leinster, Leonora, Meekatharra, Monkey Mia, MonthKeith, Shark Bay and WilunaGeraldton, Kalbarri, Shark Bay and Useless LoopTable 4.16 Airlines serving regional airports in Western Australia, 2005Airlines in WAAir North RegionalGolden Eagle AviationGreat Western AirlinesMaroomba AirlinesNational Jet Systems Pty LtdQantas AirwaysSkippers AviationSkywest Airlines Pty LtdVirgin BlueSource: BITRE time series estimates.Regional airports servedBroome, KununurraBroome, Derby-Curtin, Fitzroy Crossing, Halls Creek andPort HedlandHalls Creek, NewmanMount MagnetChristmas Island, Cocos Island and RavensthorpeBroome, Kalgoorie, Karratha, Kununurra, Leinster, Newman,Paraburdoo and Port HedlandGeraldton, Kalbarri, Laverton, Meekatharra, Monkey Miaand WilunaAlbany, Broome, Carnarvon, Esperance, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie,Karratha, Kununurra, Learmonth, Leinster, Leonora, Newmanand Port HedlandBroome127
BITRE | Report 1154.3 Airport catchment analysisThis section presents major findings related to the accessibility of regular scheduledair services in Australia.In this section, accessibility is a general term used to describe the extent to which asystem could be reached by users. It should not to be confused with ‘usability’ whichdescribes how easily a system could be used by any type of user (e.g. timeliness,service frequency, or some measure of the relative ‘connectivity’ provided by othermodes of transport to access the nearest airport).The airport catchment analysis evaluates the ability to access regular scheduledair services by residents in urban centres or localities. An airport generally servespopulations and businesses in its surrounding area. A catchment area is the potentialgeographic areas for drawing passengers (GAO, 2003). The analysis identifies the sizeand location of the target population located within a specified access distance ofone or more airports.The following section outlines the data sources, assumptions and methodology usedfor the analysis.4.3.1 Analysis approachData sourcesTwo data sources were used in the analyses:• A list of all airports providing regional air services in 2005 was extracted from theBTRE regional air transport time series database.• Population and urban centres/localities (UC/L) data was drawn from the 2001Census of Population and Housing data. UC/Ls are census districts (CDs) groupedtogether to approximate the extent and boundaries of all towns with an enumeratedpopulation of 200 people or more. The ABS defines towns with populationsabove 1000 people as ‘urban centres’ and towns with populations between 200and 999 people as ‘localities’. An extensive set of criteria is used to define theboundaries of a UC/L. These criteria include population size, population density,number of dwellings and so forth. The UC/L structure does not cover the entireAustralian population (ABS 2001c). In 2001, the defined UC/Ls covered 17 millionpeople. There were 2.6 million people or 13.3 per cent of the population wholived in communities of less than 200 people. They were classified under ruraland migratory areas and were outside the UC/L classification. These people wereexcluded from the analysis. There were 1709 UC/Ls in 2001. Of which, 715 wereurban centres and 994 were localities.AssumptionsTwo set of analyses were undertaken in this section based on different assumptions.The first analysis assumed that the reasonable access distances to regular scheduledair services within Australia were (Figure 4.20):• 120 km to large or medium airport• 40 km to small or rural airport.128
