With these first two based aircraft, the airport will be able to immediately and significantly expand its offer of connections, thus generating the network to / from Turin with the highest ever number of destinations served. This is a highly desired strategic opportunity to be able to overcome the contingent crisis linked to the pandemic as soon as possible and look to an increasingly international future for Turin and Piedmont. Precisely for this reason we expect the Piedmontese to rediscover the beauty of traveling using the Turin Airport, being able to take advantage of the numerous direct flights to European capitals and many other new destinations such as Lanzarote, Tel Aviv and Seville. At the same time, we hope that the whole territory will be able to concentrate resources and actions to increase the attractiveness of the tourist heritage of the city and the entire region ”.
