Greece’s Civil Aviation Service under radical transformation

The fast-growing tourism in Greece makes these changes imperative

Newsroom August 31 05:30

 

The Greek Civil Aviation Service is about to be split into two completely separate bodies, after the issue of the Presidential Decrees, following a Parliamentary Act passed two years ago.

The first new body will be APA, the Independent Agency to which all 44 airports of Greece, both private and state-run will be appertained to.

The second body will be the Civil Aviation Service which will be the responsible Authority for management of the state-owned airports in Greece.

According to information, the two new bodies will employ 3,000 people.
