The first phaseclearly, it will be experimental: windsin total, the races which will reach the Salerno airport and these will be added to the additional lines of the other municipalities involved.
To take stock of the situation – as the newspaper reports today “The Chronicles” available online – is Gaetano Riccopresident of Cotasa: «As far as the airport is concerned, departure is imminent, scheduled for July 11th. We have a program for the first quarter, not many flights but despite this we have put pressure and in particular I have worked to activate discussions with the unions.
We did one several years ago when the famous full empty flights were leaving under the management of the Chamber of Commerce and, fortunately, they kept the airport project alive. The Chamber of Commerce, at the time, invested to keep the project alive albeit with few flights, now the airport is the responsibility of Gesac and will get off to a good start so much so that the employees of the Naples airport have the words “airport” on their bibs. of Naples and Salerno” and it is an important signal.
We managed to obtain this consultation table and several institutional representatives were present; The Municipalities of Salerno, Pontecagnano, Bellizzi and Battipaglia participated in the meeting to discuss the airport in concrete terms, managing to outline some shifts also from Salerno. THE
initially, there will be ten cars from Salerno in the morning and ten in the afternoon, despite the few flights; three in the morning and three in the afternoon from Battipaglia while Pontecagnano and Bellizzi are preparing for the competitions and it seems that soon there will be taxis in those areas too to then integrate the shifts for a total of twenty cars in the morning and 20 on afternoon.
We also established a schedule which was approved, together with the new request for the tariff plan to the Municipality (it was approved before the consultative commission which gave a positive opinion and then the municipality decided). So we also have these shifts that will start when the airport leaves.
As regards the new features, predetermined rates have been set up from the airport to Salerno, from the airport to Bellizzi, to Pontecagnano and Battipaglia while for the other destinations the taximeter applies as always. We are very confident in the departure of this airport even if at the beginning the flights are very few but there are important groups interested and we hope they can be integrated as soon as possible. Gesac has given important numbers in terms of passengers which will double.
The airport station is affected by works, when the works at the private airport are completed, the works on the new airport will begin which should last approximately two hours. If the forecasts are confirmed there will be important implications for our sector too».
