Paros has been spotted by so-called influencers, probably because the existing runway is about to be lengthened, from the current 1400 to 1799m, thus allowing flights from northern Europe. In addition, it will have a new control tower, terminal building, and 'other facilities', presumably including fuel storage.
So it is about to be transformed from a sleepy little island, reached mainly by ferry, into another version of Mykonos, runway now 1903m, which underwent exactly the same transformation. International passengers in 2013 - 350,610. International passengers in 2023 - 1,127,580.
