Fraport Greece reported a 6.4% increase in passenger traffic for the first 11 months of 2024, reaching 35.22 million passengers. November saw an 11.6% rise in traffic compared to 2023, driven by an extended tourist season and a surge in international arrivals. The company plans to invest approximately €150 million in airport upgrades, including infrastructure improvements at popular destinations like Santorini, Mykonos, and Corfu. Fraport Greece continues to enhance its network to support the growing demand and strengthen Greece's aviation sector.
Passenger traffic at Greek airports surged 8.9% in the first 10 months of 2024, reaching 72.8 million passengers, according to the Civil Aviation Authority. Flight activity also rose by 6.9%, with a total of 546,858 flights. CAA Governor Giorgos Saounatsos highlighted that the sector is on track to set a new annual record, surpassing last year's total in just 10 months.
Fraport Greece is set to begin the third phase of its runway renovation project at several regional airports in Greece. The initiative aims to enhance safety standards and operational efficiency. The renovation works will focus on the runways at Zakynthos, Kavala, Kefalonia, Corfu, Mykonos, Santorini, Samos, Rhodes, and Mytilene airports.
Fraport Greece, the operator of 14 Greek regional airports, including several popular with British tourists, is undertaking a €440 million (£371 million) investment program to upgrade the facilities.
Tourist traffic to Mykonos and Santorini was slow in early 2024, with international arrivals dropping 7.2% for Mykonos and 1% for Santorini. Despite increased domestic travel, hotel bookings fell by 20% and 13% respectively. Overall, Greece's regional airports saw an 11.3% rise in passengers.
