Another milestone for the growth in passenger volumes arriving and departing from Venice’s Marco Polo airport, which starting yesterday saw the resumption of Air Europa flights to and from Madrid.
In this context, the lagoon airport can add traffic to reach the target of 12 million passengers, as said by Dr. Camillo Bozzolo, responsible for the development of air traffic for Gruppo SAVE, the airport holding company in the north-east which also includes the airports of Verona and Treviso.
Venice is growing by 2/3% and has currently completely solved the problem of recovering the gap created by the Covid-19 pandemic.
in this area, however, the numbers still remain deficient as regards the Asian market, which saw the resumption of flights to Korea with Asiana from and to Seoul. But, they see Japan and China behind, due to the fact that they reopened their borders late.
The segment of flights to and from the Americas is fine, both directed towards the USA and Canada, as well as that for Central and South America. As Dr. said. Bozzolo, the arrival of Air Europa adds the capacity that Iberia cannot currently guarantee further because it has reached its limits on the offer and so Air Europa can make room for other leisure and VFR customers coming from beyond the Madrid hub of Spanish carrier. in fact the airline’s long-haul network covers over 20 destinations in Central, South and North America.
