Under the new brand name BGY Executive, the new facility dedicated to general aviation is now operational at Milan Bergamo airport.
Two lounges for arrivals and departures
Private flights are now handled here, with separate access roads and airport services and procedures from the main terminal. The ground floor of BGY Executive is for the arrival and departure of passengers, pilots and crews, and has all the necessary equipment and the support of the airport authorities. The area reserved for the reception of passengers and crews of private flights is located on the first floor and consists of two lounges assigned to specialized service providers including Italy FBO (Delta Aerotaxi) and Skyservices, both of which are already present in other Italian airports and have many years of experience in private aviation management.
The demand for private flights is on the upswing
The decision to implement services dedicated to this segment of the air transport market, allocating an ad-hoc structure, was dictated by the awareness of the potential of the market in and around Milan Bergamo Airport. Thanks to the strong and dynamic industrial economic fabric present throughout the eastern part of Lombardy, and the strong demand for private flights linked to events, fashion, business or high-end gastronomy that can easily be reached from Milan Bergamo Airport.
“Our airport is an optimal logistical solution”
"The opening of a facility dedicated exclusively to general aviation flights, with lounges managed by Italy FBO and Skyservices, - says Giacomo Cattaneo, Sacbo 's aviation commercial director - is a further feather in the cap of our airport with the BGY Executive area accessible via a separate roadway from the commercial aviation passenger terminal, allowing airport procedures to be carried out on site, thanks to the cooperation of the State Authorities (ENAC, Border Police, Guardia di Finanza, Customs and Monopolies Agency), both on departure and arrival. General aviation traffic, in many cases on intercontinental routes, is constantly growing and the concentration of the industrial fabric, as well as the proximity of places of strong tourist appeal, have lead to our airport being chosen as the optimal logistical solution.”
