Retailers at Hong Kong International Airport will continue to receive rent relief until at least September 2021.

Airport Authority Hong Kong (AA) is continuing to support the airport community by extending its relief package for a further two months to the end of September 2021 due to the prolonged impact of the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic.

The AA said that various fee waiver or concession policies supporting the industry will continue from August to September 2021. These include rental relief for retail and catering tenants.

Most shops and restaurants in the terminal have suspended business and their rental is waived. The base rent is also waived for those that remain open to provide essential services.

In addition, a fees waiver for terminal licensees including ancillary passenger services, commercial services counters and cross-border transport operators and concessions on fees for aviation support services such as into-plane fuelling, aircraft maintenance and inflight catering services are in place.

All relief measures will be adjusted to respond to the changing circumstances accordingly, AA said.
