Πωλήθηκε τελικά το Gatwick από την BAA έναντι 1.51 δισ. λιρών/ 1.67 δισ. euros στην GIP, εταιρία στην οποία ανήκει από το 2006 και το London City Airport. Η πώληση αναμένεται να ολοκληρωθεί την πρώτη εβδομάδα του Δεκεμβρίου, οπότε μεταξύ άλλων θα υπάρξει η σχετική έγκριση από την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση.
Δελτίο Τύπου BAA Gatwick:
London Gatwick Airport has been sold by BAA to an entity controlled by Global Infrastructure Partners for £1.51 billion.
Of the sale price, £55 million is conditional on future traffic performance and the buyer’s future capital structure. Proceeds will be used to repay part of BAA’s existing debt.
Andy Flower, managing director of London Gatwick Airport said: “Today’s announcement is a landmark day for the airport, our staff, airlines and business partners, members of the local community and of course, the 34 million passengers* who choose to fly through Gatwick each year.”
Andy added: “ We now look forward to working with Global Infrastructure Partners to maximise the potential of Gatwick.”
The sale is subject to, among other things, EU merger regulation clearance. Completion of the sale is scheduled for early December.
London Gatwick is the UK’s second largest airport and the busiest single runway airport in the world. It serves over 200 destinations in 90 countries for around 34 million passengers a year* on full service, charter and short-haul leisure airlines. It is also a major economic driver for the south-east region, generating around 23,000 on-airport jobs and a further 13,000 through related activities. The airport is situated 28 miles south of London with excellent public transport links, including the award winning Gatwick Express.
* Based on figures to the end of 2008.
