DESTINATION AIRPORTS
The airports in the destinations proposed in this issue of Avion Tourism Magazine can be reached with both direct flights and flights with stopovers in principal Italian and European airports. To learn whether a departure airport is connected directly or one or two stopovers are needed to reach it, consult the pages devoted to individual airports and from there display the flights in real time on the official website of your destination airport.
