All airspace sectors and runways are fully operational again. Despite reopening, passengers are experiencing significant lingering disruptions. Nearly 30% of scheduled flights face ongoing delays or outright cancellations as airlines work to reset their networks. Nearby Palermo Airport and Comiso Airport remain fully operational and continue to handle some diverted traffic. 

Passengers are advised not to travel to the airport without checking live flight status directly through your airline’s app or website.
