Trasporto aereo, Troncone (Adr): "Accordo tra Ita e Lufthansa chiave per prospettiva di crescita vettore nazionale"

adnkronos

(Adnkronos) - “L’accordo tra Ita e Lufthansa è chiave e strumentale per stabilizzare e dare una prospettiva sana di crescita al vettore di riferimento nazionale, prospettiva che è mancata negli ultimi quindici anni, ma anche a valorizzare l’aeroporto di Fiumicino come hub di transito – dichiara Marco Troncone, amministratore delegato di Aeroporti di Roma e presidente fondazione PACTA, a margine del terzo congresso fondazione PACTA - Patto per la decarbonizzazione del trasporto aereo –. L’Italia per la posizione geografica che ha può ricavarsi un ruolo in tanti settori, tra cui quello trasportistico per essere una piattaforma di riferimento per tutto il bacino del Mediterraneo e anche oltre”.

00:00What do you think about the end of the year?

00:04The year ends very well, very positively.

00:07Roma-Fiumicino is the airport that grows the most in Europe, and by far.

00:12When the second airport grows the most, it grows at half the pace of Fiumicino.

00:16Fiumicino grows by more than 20% compared to last year,

00:19and we expect in 2025, we already see it,

00:21that it will grow even more, probably even more, in double figures.

00:25This means that the volume of traffic that will flourish in 2024

00:29will reach 50 million passengers, which is really an unthinkable threshold.

00:33Only a short time ago there was a volume of traffic,

00:35and we thought, only a year or two years ago,

00:37that we would have reached it by 2028.

00:39So the future is being anticipated.

00:41This is certainly part of a very strong attractiveness of the Italian system

00:47as a great tourist destination,

00:49but perhaps also of a structural change in the behavior of our passengers.

00:53Passengers who begin to put their wishes higher,

00:57travel to interesting and attractive tourist destinations,

01:02and therefore, if this is the case, it is not only a temporary outburst,

01:06but it risks being a structural trend,

01:08in which, I repeat, Italy is a candidate to be one of the most magnetic destinations

01:13at the international level.

01:15For this reason, the traffic from and for Italy

01:20can certainly benefit from a more robust ITA, and it will do so,

01:25but it is not exactly essential,

01:27because global travelers will come to Italy independently of the vector.

01:33However, the agreement between ITA and Lufthansa, on the other hand,

01:35is key and instrumental to, first of all,

01:38stabilize and give a healthy prospect of growth to the national reference vector,

01:42a prospect that has been objectively lacking in the last 15 years,

01:46but also to enhance the Fiumicino hub as a transit hub.

01:50Italy, for the geographical position it has,

01:52can play an important role in many sectors,

01:55the energy sector is one of them, but without a doubt also the transport sector,

01:58to be a reference platform for the entire Mediterranean basin and beyond.
