Increase in passenger traffic at Greek regional airports in September
Published
Passenger traffic at the 14 regional airports in Greece managed by Fraport Greece showed a significant increase during the month of September. According to official data, the number of passengers reached 5.7 million, marking a 4.2% increase compared to the same period last year.
These figures confirm the dynamic trajectory of Greek tourism even after the peak of the summer season. Travelers from abroad, as well as domestic travelers, contributed decisively to this positive result for the Greek economy.
This increase is observed at many popular airports in the country, such as those in Crete, the Ionian Islands, and the Cyclades. Airport infrastructure managed to accommodate the large volume of passengers, maintaining smooth flight operations despite the increased number of arrivals and departures.
Tourism industry analysts estimate that this trend shows that Greece remains one of the most attractive destinations in Europe throughout the autumn. Extending the tourist season is a key goal for the country, as it helps stabilize revenue for local communities.
Overall, the picture for September is considered particularly satisfactory for the aviation sector. The relevant authorities continue to monitor the data, expecting that this positive trend will continue in the coming months, further strengthening tourist traffic in the country.
