VINCI Airports, a subsidiary of VINCI Concessions, has finalized the acquisition of a majority shareholding (50.01%) in Edinburgh Airport for GBP1.27 billion (US$ 1.6 billion), alongside Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) which manages the remaining 49.99%.

Its growth potential is being driven in particular by the development of long-distance segments. After Belfast International and London Gatwick, VINCI Airports now owns three freehold airports in the United Kingdom.
