Travel between the port of Piraeus and Athens International Airport will take approximately 45 minutes on an electric train set to operate in June, Transport and Infrastructure Minister Christos Spirtzis said recently during his visit to the central Athens hub.

Athens International Airport was voted first place by international airlines on Tuesday in the 4-20 million passengers’ category at the 2016 World Routes event, the biggest global airline networking forum.

A court decision is forcing multinational firm Hochtief, which managed Athens International Airport for two decades to pay 600 million euros in VAT that was withheld from the Greek state.
