Macau’s top tourism official welcomed competition among airlines using the local airport, saying that it was “always advantageous to have more competition” as it would raise service quality.
Macau Government Tourism Office (MGTO) Director Maria Helena de Senna Fernandes made the remarks when asked by reporters about this week’s announcement by the Macau Civil Aviation Authority (AACM) that it had decided not to renew the monopoly concession of Air Macau when it expires in November next year.
Senna Fernandes also said that her office was open to work with all airlines serving Macau. “We are always open to work with any airline,” she said, including those in Hong Kong, adding that her office was having “good relations” with Air Macau, “but we are also working with other airlines that fly to Macau.”
