Bolzano Airport
Bolzano Airport ( it, Aeroporto di Bolzano — Dolomiti, german: Flughafen Bozen — Dolomiten) is a small regional airport near Bolzano in the province of South Tyrol in northern Italy. History The airport was created in October 1926 with a 1300-meter landing runway. In June 2016, a public opinion poll decided to no longer support the highly deficient airport with money from the government.

South Tyrol spent over €120 million in recent years for the airport without attracting any lasting scheduled traffic. Darwin Airline ceased their ''PSO''-flights to Rome on behalf of Alitalia on 18 June 2015 leaving Bolzano Airport again without any scheduled commercial traffic. In 2019, the South Tyrol government sold the airport to ABD Holding, a private company of en ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
