We have already made significant interventions to improve the operation of the airport and we do our best to ensure that the services that travelers enjoy are continually improving.

Our allies in this effort are the local carriers and we would like to thank them all. Together, we will work hard, with a plan and a strategy in mind, so that Santorini acquires the airport it deserves.”
