The high performance, but also the very good prospects for the current tourist season, are confirmed by the data on passenger traffic at the country’s airports in the first quarter of 2023.

According to the Civil Aviation Service (CAA), a total of 6,877,069 international and domestic passengers passed through the airports in the January-March period. This number corresponds to a +52.8% increase compared to the same period in 2022 and a 2.9% increase compared to the corresponding quarter of 2019.

Referring to the CAA data, Tourism Minister Vassilis Kikilias underlined in a tweet: “New target markets bring more revenue to the Greek economy”.
