An intermodal bridgehead

摘要

Athens airport (AIA) handled 63,888 t of freight in the first nine months of this year, or 4.6% more than in the same period last year. This is not much compared to the more than 4.5 million teu that crossed the quays in the port of Piraeus in 2017. Tassos Vamvakidis, commercial director of the Piraeus Container Terminal (PCT), is sure that "this throughput will again be eclipsed this year." A small but select proportion of the goods passes through both the maritime gateway as well as the airport.
