Fraport Greece is replacing both the runway and the airport apron with new high-resistance asphalt layers as the runway edges have exceeded their lifecycle and its centre has smoothness and friction problems.

The new apron and runway markings will also comply with the new European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) certification requirements.

Expected to be completed by 2019, the project will see the demolition of the existing terminal and construction of a new one of 10.652m², and a new Airport Rescue Firefighting Station (ARFF).

Additionally, an automatic security check system (HBS inline screening system) will be installed for inspection of passenger luggage.

With regard to the increase of airport’s capacity, the check-in counters will be increased by 71%, while the airport’s gates will be increased to six instead of the current three.

The security and control spots are also set to reach four from the existing two.
