Ryanair's new base at Trapani airport

Two new based aircraft and 23 total routes, including 11 new routes to/from Baden-Baden, Bari, Bratislava, Bournemouth, Brussels, Katowice, London, Pescara, Saarbrücken, Stockholm and Verona

The airline Ryanair has announced the opening of a new base at Vincenzo Florio airport in Trapani, starting from January 2026. The decision follows that of the Sicilian Region to abolish the municipal surcharge for Sicilian airports under 5 million passengers.

Trapani-Marsala thus becomes the third Ryanair base in Sicily, the twentieth in Italy. The $200 million investment in new aircraft in Trapani-Marsala will create over 800 local jobs, 23 routes, including 11 new to European destinations and over 260,000 (+25%) additional seats, improving year-round connectivity, tourism and job growth.

The new Ryanair Trapani-Marsala base includes two new B737 aircraft, 200 million investment for winter 2025 and summer 2026, 23 total routes, including 11 new ones to/from: Baden-Baden, Bari, Bratislava, Bournemouth, Brussels, Katowice, London, Pescara, Saarbrücken, Stockholm and Verona.

In addition, from Trapani airport there are already active connections with other Italian cities such as Pisa and Turin and a 10% increase in capacity to Rome and Milan. The expected increase in passenger traffic for 2026 is over 1 million passengers.
