GROWTH AND REFURBISHMENT
Clermont-Ferrand Auvergne Airport confirmed its spectacular return to growth in 2013 with traffic increasing 10.5% to surpass 400,000 passengers. The momentum is particularly driven by the creation of new Ryanair and HOP! seasonal service to Brussels-Charleroi, Porto and Amsterdam, and Air Corsica flights to Corsica. The new connections coincided with the celebration on June 26, 2013 of the completion of a major terminal renovation program initiated in July 2012, which was designed to provide high-quality passenger service and premium comfort. The customer experience was also enhanced with new VINCI Airports signs. Deployed in Poitiers in December 2013, the new signage system will ultimately be applied across all facilities managed by VINCI Airports.
AT THE FOOT OF THE SKI RUNS
Grenoble Isère Airport offers fast direct access to the city center and the outlying ski resorts. It has added five new routes to its destination portfolio: Katowice (Wizzair), Southampton and Cardiff (Flybe), and Brest and Rennes (Europe Airpost). This impetus has enabled the airport to return to growth, with passenger traffic up 7.6% in 2013. Other routes are planned for 2014, including Tassili Airlines’ four flights per week to Algeria during the summer and the arrival next winter of British Airways, which will operate scheduled flights to London Gatwick.
