Questions & Answers about Όπως κι αν γίνει η επιβίβαση, ακολουθούμε τον λιμενικό.

What does Όπως κι αν mean here?

Here όπως κι αν means however or no matter how.

So:

• Όπως κι αν γίνει η επιβίβαση = However the boarding takes place
• more naturally in English: No matter how boarding is done

This is a common Greek pattern:

• όπως κι αν + subjunctive

It introduces an indefinite/concessive idea: the exact way something happens does not change the main point.

Why is it κι αν and not και αν?

Κι is just a shorter form of και.

So:

• κι αν
• και αν

Both are possible, but κι αν is extremely common and sounds natural in everyday Greek. Before a vowel, Greek often uses κι instead of και for smoother pronunciation.

In this sentence, όπως κι αν is a very common fixed combination.
