Italy is one of Ryanair's strongest markets. The Irish low-cost carrier has been the country's largest airline for several years. Its planes land at 32 Italian airports. On the mainland, these are Ancona, Bari, Venice, Bergamo, Bologna, Brindisi, Crotone, Cuneo, Forli, Genoa, Lamezia Terme, Milan (Malpensa), Naples, Parma, Perugia, Pescara, Pisa, Reggio Calabria, Rimini, Rome (Fiumicino and Ciampino), Salerno, Trieste, Turin, Treviso and Verona, as well as Alghero, Olbia and Cagliari in Sardinia and finally Catania, Palermo and Trapani in Sicily. The latter airport will open a base next year.
Trapani is located on the western tip of Sicily. The airport, named after the founder of the Targa Florio race, Vincenzo Florio, is both a civilian airport and an air base. Last year, it handled a million passengers. There was also a direct flight from Prague until Covid.
Ryanair is the main carrier at Vincenzo Florio Airport. It connects it with eighteen destinations. Namely, these are Bologna, Bratislava, Brussels (Charleroi), Düsseldorf (Weeze), Karlsruhe (Baden/Baden), Katowice, London (Stansted), Malta, Manchester, Milan (Malpensa), Bergamo, Pescara, Pisa, Porto, Rome (Fiumicino), Seville, Turin and Venice.
For further expansion, it decided to place one of its Boeing 737s at the airport. Thanks to it, it will open new routes to Stockholm (Arlanda), Bournemouth, Bari, Saarbrücken and Verona.
In September, it was also announced that a new global training center for the American fifth-generation F-35 fighter jets with Stealth technology would be built at the Trapani air base.
