AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Border Pressure: Eurostat says EU/Schengen entry refusals hit 132,600 in 2025 (+7%), with Albanians among the biggest groups turned away—while thousands of US, UK and Indian nationals are also being found illegally present. Ryanair Shake-up: The airline warns of rising costs but demand stays “robust,” then lands a bigger blow for travellers: 700,000 seats and 12 routes axed as it closes its Thessaloniki base and cuts winter capacity—Ryanair says airport charges in Greece are the problem, and it’s reallocating capacity to Albania and nearby markets. Coastline Crime & Corruption: In Saranda, police leaders face arrest over alleged abuse of office tied to illegal beach construction—linked to a property dispute after a tourist guide was killed in an explosive attack. Tourism Momentum: Albania and France sign their first film co-production deal at Cannes, and the country’s travel appeal keeps widening as more carriers and tour operators point travellers east. Schengen Shuffle Trend: Brits are “Schengen Shufflers,” hopping around Europe for months while staying within the 90/180 rule.
