European airport management and FBO infrastructure operator Sea Prime grew business aviation movements at its facilities by 4 percent in 2023, to 33,000, which is also up 38 percent versus pre-pandemic 2019. At its facilities in Milan, Italy, traffic is already up 6 percent compared to the same period in 2023, thanks to high traffic during Milan Fashion Week in late February.
Celebrating its success this week at the 2024 NBAA Schedulers & Dispatchers conference, Sea Prime highlighted last year’s addition of a 50,400-sq-ft hangar at Linate Prime. This brings the total to 12 business aircraft hangars totaling 377,000 sq ft.
At Malpensa Prime, Sea Prime’s Fast Track service takes care of the needs of large-aircraft charter flights, such as for Milanese football and basketball teams and their rivals. “Rock and movie stars and international corporations are increasingly requesting Milano Prime’s Fast Track service, which guarantees a combination of comfort, privacy, and security,” according to Sea Prime.
“Sea Prime is constantly working to meet the increasing demand for business aviation services and infrastructures in Milano, with a focus on the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics, during which Milano Prime airports will be ready to welcome visitors, athletes, and delegations,” said CEO Chiara Dorigotti.
