99 days for $99 - Special deal to help FIFO workers

Perth Airport has moved to offer even more support for Western Australia’s vital resources sector, making it easier and cheaper for FIFO workers to park at the airport for long shifts.

Despite facing its own financial challenges, Perth Airport is determined to ensure its terminals keep operating to support the FIFO workforce.

Perth Airport CEO Kevin Brown said the airport is also willing to do its bit to assist FIFO workers who have had their rosters changed.

“We understand that FIFO workers are concerned about the coronavirus and the need to maintain social distancing on their trips to and from Perth Airport,” Mr Brown said.

“We also know that many FIFO workers are now facing longer periods away from home and may not normally want to park at the airport for such extended periods.

“We’ve responded by introducing a heavily discounted parking price for our long term car parks.

“FIFO workers will now be able to park for up to 99 days in our open long term car parks and pay no more than $99.

“This new offer aims to helps workers who prefer not to have to take a taxi, rideshare or public transport to the airport for their flight.

“And with social distancing now a priority for everyone, this will allow workers to drive themselves out and then have their car close by when they return.
