Chief executive John McCall said it had not yet been decided when negotiations would be carried out or what the new charges would be.
Landing charges depend on the weight of planes and the number of passenger seats they have, with the landing of a 737-300 costing an airline about $760 plus GST and an ATR about $270 plus GST.
In February, Air New Zealand announced it would suspend its Dunedin-Sydney service from April until October and reduce flights to Brisbane during low-demand months.
According to airport chairman Richard Walls, at the time, the loss of the service was expected to have a "severe impact" on the airport.
Asked if landing charges might be increased to make up for such losses, Mr McCall said the decrease in international flights had "not flowed through into the discussions yet".
However, international passengers had a higher value to the business than domestic passengers through such things as sales of duty-free goods.
In March, operators of the airport's duty-free shop announced eight part-time staff were to be made redundant.
In October last year, the airport, which is half-owned by Dunedin City Council subsidiary Dunedin City Holdings Ltd, reported a loss before tax of $328,459 for the year to the end of June.
Christchurch International Airport announced last week it was raising its landing charges to airlines over the next 16 months.
Airport chief executive Jim Boult said the company was not making adequate returns from the current charges, which had not increased for eight years.
