TAV takes over the operation of Milas- Bodrum Airport International Terminal

TAV Airports has undertaken the operation of International Terminal of Milas-Bodrum Airport, one of the major tourism destinations in Turkey, in addition to its Domestic Terminal. Being awarded the tender held last year for a bid amount of €717 million + VAT, TAV will operate Milas-Bodrum Airport until 2035.

TAV Airports, the leading global brand of Turkey in airport operations sector, has started to operate the International Terminal of Milas-Bodrum Airport.

TAV will be the operator of Milas-Bodrum Airport until the end of 2035.

TAV Airports President & CEO Sani Şener stated: “Milas-Bodrum Airport connects one of Turkey's most significant tourism centers to the rest of the world with an annual passenger capacity of almost 4 million. After we have taken over the operation of domestic terminal, we achieved a 16 per cent increase in the annual passenger capacity. Now, we will endeavor to deliver such performance at the international terminal. Today, the products and services of TAV are in use at 70 airports in 16 countries. We will utilize our know-how to carry Bodrum to the position it deserves. We believe that Bodrum will become the fourth largest city in Turkey within the next 15 to 20 years. By increasing the direct flights to the international terminal in close collaboration with local authorities and players of tourism industry, we are planning to make Bodrum a center of attraction which will be popular for all 12 months of the year."
