The suspension is carried out as part of the expansion projects of the aircraft parking lot and the upgrading of the landing and take -off runway, according to the NODAM of the Civil Aviation Authority.

In particular, according to NAXOSPRESS, the Naxos State Airport runway will remain closed in order to carry out the technical infrastructure and maintenance projects of the road. During the upgrade work, helicopter aircraft flights will not be affected, as they will use an approved airport parking space.

The temporary suspension of commercial flight service is necessary in order to complete the necessary technical work and connection of the new traffic with the landing / take -off run in a short time and safely, as well as the resolution and strengthening of the corridors.
