It was with a good performance that 2022 came to an end for Athens International Airport Eleftherios Venizelos. The passenger traffic of Athens International Airport reached 22.72 million passengers which is an increase of 84.1% compared to 2021. The difference with the airport’s record year, i.e. 2019, finally closed at -11.1%, with a difference of about 1.8 million passengers.
Here, of course, we should mention that in the second half of 2022, AIA recorded 13.8 million passengers, while in 2019 we had 14.3 million passengers. This means that in the second half the difference was limited to approximately 466,000 passengers (or a difference of 72,000 passengers per month).
If we add to this equation the absence of the big markets from China, Russia and Ukraine, then we can draw the conclusion that in 2022, after the full opening of air transport since the summer, it moved almost marginally compared to 2019.
