Together with TAV Airports Holding, Fraport AG is donating one million euros for the victims of the earthquake in Turkey. The two companies work closely together on the Turkish market in the Antalya Airport operator consortium. The joint venture partners each donate 500.000 euros. Discussions are ongoing with the Turkish authorities to determine where the money is most needed.

"Our thoughts are with the victims and their relatives," said Stefan Schulte, CEO of Fraport AG. “Now quick help is required, which we are arranging together with our partner TAV Airports Holding. Together we are helping to alleviate the suffering of the people in the affected regions.”

In addition, Fraport AG calls on its employees to make donations for the victims of the earthquake. Employees can donate money to the non-profit organization “Aviation without Borders / Wings of Help”. Fraport will then double this amount.

“Many of our employees have Turkish roots or family in the country. The fate of the people after this natural disaster touches us all very much," said Hakan Bölükmese, Chairman of the Works Council. "It is important to us to send a signal from the workforce to the affected regions. That is why the works council is also appealing to employees to donate.”
