Description

Athens International Airport S.A. (AIA) was established in 1996 as a Public-Private Partnership with a 50-year concession agreement. Ratified initially by Greek Law 2338/95 and at a later stage by Law 4594/2019 , the concession agreement grants the right to use the airport site for the purpose of the “design, financing, construction, completion, commissioning, maintenance, operation, management and development of the airport”. AIA is a pioneer international Public-Private Partnership, being the first major greenfield airport with the participation of the private sector. The cost for the development of the airport was financed mainly from bank loans - with European Investment Bank being the major lender, while the remaining funding was provided through private shareholders equity and EU and Greek State grants.
