<span style='color:#780948'>ARCHIVED</span> - Maintenance tender launched for Corvera Airport

Aena has put the contract for the maintenance of Murcia International Airport in Corvera out to tender this week and has invited suitably qualified companies to submit their offers between now and March 28. The awarded contract will be worth 922,268.05 euros and will be awarded for a year, with the possibility of extending it for a further two years.

The tender request has been published in the Public Sector Contracting Platform, which specifies that the contract involves "the maintenance or set of operations and care necessary so that the facilities, buildings, industries, etc. can continue to function properly".

Its main objective is "to avoid, as far as possible, or reduce breakdowns or failures that interrupt or hinder the operation of the facilities, and in the event that a failure or breakdown occurs, proceed to its repair within a predetermined period of time".

The investment in Corvera airport is an encouraging indicator for the future of the tourism sector, with the upcoming summer season key in recovering the pre-pandemic levels of visitors to the entire Murcia Region. The airport has already announced that it will increase its operations to 22 routes that will connect Murcia with 17 international cities and five Spanish destinations this year, compared to just 17 last year.

The tourism industry is once again pinning its hopes on the British market, with connections from Corvera running to London Stansted, Luton, Gatwick, Bristol, Bournemouth, Manchester, East Midlands, Glasgow Prestwick and Birmingham.

In addition to the UK, Murcia International has extended its operations this year to more exotic destinations such as Casablanca and Oujda, as well as new direct flights to the Norwegian cities of Oslo and Bergen from June, a market that brought almost 80,000 tourists to Murcia in 2019.
