Turin’s Caselle Airport is flying high, achieving its best ever results ever in terms of passengers handled so far this year.
“The new flights from Vilnius and Stockholm have high load factors”
Contributing to the excellent result were the tourist flows from abroad.
"The new international flights, such as the Vilnius and Stockholm, have recorded very high load factors, confirming the increase in interest in Piedmont,- said Andrea Andorno, managing director of the airport. -In the first five months of 2023 the international component was 52%, which was 6% higher than the same period of 2022."
Snow traffic but also spring holiday breaks
Caselle Airport recorded an excellent snow traffic trend in the first four months of 2023 thanks to skiers from Northern Europe, as well as to growing incoming tourist flows directed towards the entire region and linked to the spring bank-holiday weekends. From January to May Turin’s Caselle Airport totalled 1,859,610 passengers, a 23.4% rise over the same period in 2022 (1,507,311 passengers) and +10% over the same period in 2019, the last pre-Covid year (1,684,264 passengers). The airport thus surpassed every record set so far, posting +7% over the previous best result dating back to 2017 (1,740,231 passengers).
New charter flights from Stockholm
A new charter chain from Stockholm kicked off at the start of June, for Swedish tourists who love summer mountain holidays. These flights will operate every Saturday until 12 August, offering a complete package of flight, transfers and hotel, to make holidays in Piedmont’s mountains, historically appreciated during the winter months, even easier to enjoy during the summer season.
