April Air Arrivals in Greece Up a Third on Last Year

Greece-tourism-airportsLatest tourism data from Greece point north of last year’s record-breaking summer season, with arrivals at Greek airports up 33.9% on last April.

According to the Civil Aviation Authority, 1.81 million people arrived from abroad at Greek airports in the January-April period, compared with 1.5 million in the same period last year, with the biggest gains at Athens International Airport.

Moreover, domestic air traffic also increased by 9.7% on the same period last year, with a 29.8% gain in April alone.

Tourists from all over the world are visiting Greece, although there is some concern about the drop in arrivals from Russia after a significant increase earlier in the year.

The growth of Greek tourism owes much to the restoration of the country’s image, with major international media touting Greece as an ideal holiday destination, while the increase in available low-cost air seats to Greece, as well as the competitive prices on offer around the country, are helping stimulate the supply and demand, respectively.
