Naples Capodichino is closed to all air traffic for November.
Airport operator GESAC says Naples will stay closed for the whole of November while the runway, taxiways and lighting are rebuilt, a €30 million project worked around the clock. Part of the traffic moves to Salerno Costa d’Amalfi, which will serve 15 destinations during the month. Both Salerno terminals will be in use, and the recently opened general aviation terminal is being used for some non-Schengen commercial flights.
Gulf airline disruption is bringing first-time flyers to charter.
Elysium Jet, a broker with offices in Dubai and New York, says travellers who normally fly business or first class have been chartering after their airline flights from the Gulf were cancelled. It cites FlightAware data showing 1,692 delays and 131 cancellations across the region on 7 October alone. Most of its missions to Europe used heavy jets such as the Challenger 605 or Gulfstream G-IV SP, and it estimates a roughly seven-hour Gulf to Western Europe flight at $70,000 to $110,000, or about $6,000 to $9,000 per person with a full cabin.
