Fraport Greece, a subsidiary of the German transport company Fraport AG which operates airports around the world, saw a massive increase in passenger traffic in its 14 Greek regional terminals, posting a record year in 2024.
The 14 regional airports served more than 36 million passengers, setting a new benchmark for passenger traffic.
The increasing passenger flow and ongoing investments in the infrastructure of these regional airports are further enhancing Greece’s position as a leading destination, strengthening local communities and their development prospects.
In December 2024 alone, the 14 airports posted impressive numbers in passenger traffic, welcoming a total of 805,056 visitors. This marks a 6.7% increase compared to December 2023, confirming the steady upward trend in passenger flow even during the winter months.
November 2024 was a notable month for Fraport, as a total of 876,317 passengers passed through its 14 airports, marking an 11.6% increase compared to November 2023, according to a report at OT.
On the back of the continued positive results, the company says it is planning new investments amounting to approximately €150 million.
This positive performance in December is a significant indicator of the favorable conditions that prevailed throughout 2024. It also underscores the company’s strategic planning, which focuses on improving the travel experience, upgrading infrastructure, and promoting Greece as a top-tier tourist destination.
Alexander Zinell, CEO of Fraport Greece, stated:
“2024 is a year of significant achievements for Fraport Greece. This year, we welcomed 36 million passengers across our 14 regional airports, marking a record for the third consecutive year. Through continuous investments, strategic planning, and a commitment to sustainability, we are contributing to the ongoing growth of the country’s tourism sector. We are proud of our contribution to the dynamic trajectory of the Greek economy and remain dedicated to providing high-quality services to all travelers.”
