Mackay Airport Conditions of Use

9 Interruptions to Airport Services

9.1 Unplanned interruptions and shutdowns

We may close Mackay Airport or part of Mackay Airport or interrupt or shutdown a service or facility at any time if required by law or if we believe it necessary to deal with an emergency or an airport security incident. We will use our reasonable endeavours to:

• a) give you reasonable notice of a closure or interruption in these circumstances, but you recognise that in some circumstances this may not be possible; and
• b) minimise the way you are affected by an unplanned closure or interruption.

9.2 Planned interruptions and shutdowns

We may close Mackay Airport or part of Mackay Airport or interrupt or shutdown a service or facility at any time if we believe it necessary for emergency, repair, maintenance of our facilities or because of some building or construction work occurring on the Airport. In such cases, we will:

• (a) consult, and negotiate in good faith a project plan, with Major Users; and
• (b) comply with the agreed project plan; and
• (c) give reasonable prior notice by e-mail or other means of such a closure or interruption; and
• (d) do all reasonable things to minimise the way you are affected by such a closure or interruption.

9.3 Liability for planned or unplanned interruptions and shutdowns

If we comply with clause 9.2, we are not liable for any loss or damage you suffer, including:

• (a) losses or damage due to delays in aircraft movement; and
• (b) claims against you by third parties,

directly or indirectly caused by the planned or unplanned closure of Mackay Airport or any part of Mackay Airport or the planned or unplanned interruption or shutdown of a service or facility unless caused or contributed to by our negligent act or omission or default or the negligent act or omission or default of our officers, employees, agents or contractors (and then only to the extent of such cause or contribution).
