As TAV Airports we are very glad to have won the tender for the operation of Adnan Menderes Airport, which I regard as the most important infrastructure project in Izmir. Izmir surely deserves such significant infrastructure. With the new terminal building which will be constructed, I believe that the increased capacity of the Domestic and International Terminals will make a major contribution to the region in respect of employment and economic development. We will also be transferring TAV service quality to the Domestic Terminal of Izmir Airport, a facility at the juncture of the Aegean Basin connecting Turkey with the overseas market. We plan to establish a dynamic synergy with our International Terminal Operations. We will spare no effort in strengthening the connection we have established between Izmir and various countries. As the operating company of Istanbul Atatürk and Ankara Esenboğa Airports, we are experienced in the serious effort required to operate both domestic and international terminals at the same time. In 2011, the synergy created in Istanbul resulted in a 27% growth in transfer passenger numbers. We aim to develop the airport operations in Izmir with our ever improving skillset.”
