Trapani airport
Trapani-Birgi Airport is located in the territory belonging to Trapani and is located in the immediate vicinity of the Birgi river. Trapani airport was born as an airport of military origin which was subsequently opened to civilian traffic.
The airport dedicated to civil traffic takes the name of the Italian politician Vincenzo Florio while the second airport, the one dedicated to military traffic, is named after the pilot lieutenant Livio Bassi, gold medal for military valor.
The military zone is managed by the Italian Air Force and there is also a NATO advanced operational base inside it. The military airport is located on the provincial road. The airport command is assigned to the commander of the "37º Stormo Caccia" of the Italian Air Force.
The Air Force is responsible not only for the flight assistance, but also for the management and maintenance of the runways which are part of the military state property and which it shares with civil flights.
Speaking of the civilian area, therefore the one dedicated to passengers, it is located in a separate area from the military area. The area dedicated to civilians has been operational and open to citizens since the early 1960s. Around the year 2003 the airport underwent an extensive renovation which subsequently allowed a much more efficient operation. The restructuring has given rise to an ever greater increase in passenger traffic which has then led the airport to be one of the main ones in the entire Sicilian territory.
The management of the civil airport is entrusted to the company Airgest, based in Trapani, established in June 1992.
