The modernization of the new Paros Airport is moving forward with an initial €3 million funding. This initiative aims to strengthen infrastructure, support tourism development, and improve the island’s connectivity, while preparing Paros to handle increasing air traffic.

The Municipality of Paros has established an Action Committee to push for the completion of the island’s new airport, following its removal from EU ESPA funding. This initiative reflects local political will to mobilize residents, engage with the national government, and explore alternative financing.

The modernization and expansion of Paros Airport involves a €41+ million investment to upgrade the island’s infrastructure. The project includes a 12,500 m² terminal, a new control tower, an 1,800 m runway for larger aircraft, and environmentally friendly facilities. The works are expected to be delivered progressively from summer 2026, elevating Paros as a high‑quality tourism hub.
