Stakeholder engagement meetings
In an event held on February 14th 2018 in Zakynthos, Fraport Greece presented to the local community, representatives of local authorities, local tourism stakeholders and local media its analytical construction plans for the development of Zakynthos airport. In the context of taking over the management and operation of the 14 regional airports on April 11th, Fraport Greece held a round of nationwide stakeholder engagement events during which Fraport Greece presented its plans for all airports.
During the Q&A session the key issues that emerged regarding the Zakynthos airport were the following:
• Request for exemption of all airport related charges by the local aeroclub
• Enquires about the airports ability to serve additional numbers of passengers
• Potential plans for expansion of the runway
• Plans for flight connections with new destinations
