Sicilian airports are gearing up for the upcoming summer season, with promising numbers from 2023 and the first part of 2024 leading to some optimism. Falcone Borsellino airport in Palermo recorded its best year ever in 2023, with over 8 million passengers and a 13.84% increase in traffic compared to 2022. The Gesap company managing the airport also reported its best-ever net profit of €12,235,898. Meanwhile, Sac, the company managing Catania and Comiso airports, saw a 6.30% growth in passengers in 2023 despite challenges like a fire in July. Trapani Birgi airport had a positive economic result for the first time in its history in 2023, with a 49.2% increase in passengers. However, concerns have been raised about the reliance on Ryanair at Trapani Birgi airport, potentially limiting its growth opportunities. The regional government is monitoring the situation to understand if the results of 2023 were heavily influenced by external factors, such as the events in Catania.
