Chris Smith doesn’t hold back, slamming Sydney Airport for “ripping off” hire car operators.

Hire car drivers are fuming over a 110% increase in parking fees at the international terminal – to wait in the same place as before.

Craig Norton from Sydney Airport says they have given operators the option of a new, separate area which is cheaper.

But Chris thinks the airport makes enough money from parking as it is.

“In 2015/16, Sydney Airport made $97.8 million profit from car parking fees alone, according to the ACCC.

“You’re allowing limo drivers to stay right where they were before if they’re prepared to pay 100% more.

“It’s a little bit of a rip-off.”
