Vincenzo Florio Airport Trapani-Birgi (IATA: TPS, ICAO: LICT) (Italian: Aeroporto Vincenzo Florio di Trapani-Birgi), also known simply as Trapani Airport is an airport serving Trapani, Italy. Located between Trapani and Marsala It is one of the five civil airports in Sicily, but is also used for military purposes. The airport is a base for the 37st Wing and is also used as one of the four forward operating bases (FOBs) used by the NATO Airborne Early Warning and Control stationed out of NATO Air Base Geilenkirchen in Geilenkirchen, Germany. The civil airport is named after Sicilian wine industrialist and automobile enthusiast Vincenzo Florio, while the military airfield is intituled to the Italian aviator Livio Bassi.
The airport is located 8 NM (15 km; 9.2 mi) south of Trapani, and opened in the early 1960s. After a long period of inactivity the airport was relaunched by the Province of Trapani in 2003, and now hosts several flights, mainly low-cost connections.
In 2011, 1,470,508 passengers passed through the airport, making it the third busiest airport in Sicily.
Inaugurated in the 1960s as a small regional airport operating very few flights, Trapani-Birgi became even less important in the 1990s, during which only a flight to Pantelleria was operated. The airport was relaunched in 2003 by the Province of Trapani and grew up in size after Ryanair started to use it as its main hub to Sicily, bringing several new international flights to and from Trapani. The airport has consequently been recognised as instrumental for the tourism-related economy of Western Sicily.
The airport gained international attention during Operation Odyssey Dawn in 2011 when NATO aircraft were based there during military intervention in the Libyan civil war.
