Al-Hefni: 8 months to select airport operator
The Minister of Civil Aviation, Dr. Samir Al-Hefnawy, confirmed that the government is planning to extend the period for delegating airport management and operations to the private sector from 25 years to approximately 30 years, following approval from the Parliament. The aim is to add value to the state and benefit from technical and administrative expertise while maintaining ownership of assets and the sovereignty of the state. The announcement of the winning coalition for this contract is expected about eight months after the completion of the pre-qualification bidding phase, during which seven alliances out of ten were qualified to participate in the management and operation project of Hurghada International Airport. The minister pointed out that cooperation with the private sector is not intended for asset sales but for investing in them to improve efficiency and maximize return. He also emphasized that there will be no layoffs among current employees, as training and qualification programs will be conducted for airport staff.
