Helicopter movements saw 2% growth during the year, rising to 54,000 total movements.

Cannes Mandelieu Airport has also significantly improved its aircraft reception capacity by raising tonnage which allows it to receive aircraft of up to 35 tonnes.

Finally, progress has been made in the development of the Group’s FBO ground handling business, through its Sky Valet subsidiary.

Sky Valet is at Paris – Le Bourget, Madrid, Barcelona, Palma, Ibiza, Valencia, Gerona, Santiago de Compostela and La Coruña. Sky Valet will soon open a new facility at Malaga.
