Summary
Australia’s tourism boom is hitting new highs—and a bold new plan wants to fuel it even further. The Australian Chamber of Commerce is pushing to redirect the $60 passenger departure fee into targeted investments in regional tourism, conservation, and workforce training. With visitor spending already smashing 2024 targets at $214 billion, the chamber aims for $280–300 billion by 2035. Their proposal includes longer-term planning, workforce strategy reforms, and better governance to spread tourism across the country—turning every traveler into a returning advocate.
