"This film alone, Love is in the Air, will generate around about $2.25 million for the economy," Dr Burns said.Many of them stayed at Airlie Beach hotel Mango House, which has been fully booked throughout the filming process, according to owner Pam Ashdown. "The girls on their days off have been doing tours, they've been out to Whitehaven Beach, they've been to Hamilton Island – so everybody in town would have benefited."The film is the latest in a recent string of TV shows and movies produced in the state's north since the pandemic.
