Anche SAVE e China Southern tra i 20 pretendenti per l'acquisizione del 75% delle azioni dell'aeroporto sloveno di Lubiana, messo recentemente in vendita insieme al suo vettore principale, Adria.
China Southern Airlines (CZ, Guangzhou) is among twenty other companies that have bid for a 75% stake in Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport. The airport, along with carrier Adria Airways (JP, Ljubljana) and its subsidiaries, were recently put on the market by the Slovenian state in an effort to cut excess spending and improve the longterm viability of struggling state enterprises.
According to EX-YU Aviation News, the bidders include airlines, airport management firms, pension funds, as well as investment consortia specialising in the restructuring of struggling firms. Among the listed companies are: Frankfurt Int'l's Fraport Group AG, Munich's Flughafen München GmbH, Zurich's Flughafen Zürich AG, Italy's SAVE S.p.A which manages Venice Marco Polo, Verona and Venice Treviso, French engineering and consulting group Egis, and French concession and construction company VINCI.
Despite the resignation of Prime Minister Alenka Bratušek over the weekend, Ljubljana has reaffirmed plans to move ahead with the sell off of state assets with the privatization of Ljubljana airport on track to be finalised during the summer.
