The Queensland Government has announced their latest round of funding guaranteed, see below for details:
The Palaszczuk Government will provide $5 million to 15 Queensland airports to secure new domestic flights to fast-track the tourism industry’s economic recovery. Tourism Minister Kate Jones said the initiative followed the Government’s recent partnership with Whitsundays Regional Council that secured Alliance Airlines flights to fly four times a week between Brisbane and the Whitsunday Coast (Proserpine) Airport starting on 22 June 2020.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has announced $11 million to support Gold Coast tourism icons to continue to pay workers through the COVID-19 pandemic. The Premier said the funding – part of a $50 million package announced last month – would support Village Roadshow, Ardent Leisure and Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary to retain staff while they wait for other support from banks and the Federal Government.
