12.15	Executive Panel: Facilitating the expansion: Are Australia and New Zealand equipped? Is it realistic to have nine or 10 Chinese airlines serving Australia/NZ? What impact will China have on the global bilateral air policy system? How much of the Asian market is there for the taking by Australia/NZ airlines vs Asian airlines? Have the Australian and New Zealand governments given too much away to foreign airlines? Before Asian markets reach an outbound limit, Australia will likely reach a limit on how many visitors it can receive. What needs to be done? What are the benefits – and drawbacks – of rapid inbound expansion Moderator: Satu Raunola Consulting, Principal, Satu Raunola-Spencer Panellists: Hong Kong Airlines, Assistant Director Commercial, Michael Burke Skyscanner, Director Business Development, Hugh Aitken Tourism Australia, MD & CEO, John O’Sullivan Tourism Futures International, Managing Director, Bob Cain
