“The Only Thorn of Summer”

According to the delegate Minister of Transport of France, Clément Beaune, during this strike a total of 35,000 pieces of luggage were “lost”.

At the beginning of July, Agustín de Romanet described the episode as “catastrophic” for the image of the airport.

Apart from this setback, “our airports have been fluid despite the traffic that has been very dense,” he stressed, assuring that compared to other large European hubs (London, Frankfurt, Amsterdam), Paris had come out of the game quite well. .

“In Orly we have found the traffic of 2019. In Charles de Gaulle it is not like that because Asia is still closed, we are around 80%”, recalled the head of the group, who plans to return to 2019 levels by 2024.

In Turkey, at the Antalya airport, of which ADP is the manager, the drop in the influx of Russian tourists “has been compensated to a great extent by the English, by the Germans,” greeted Augustin de Romanet.
