From Friday until the end of the year
all Sicilian residents will have access to a 25% discount on air
fares to all airports in Italy, Sicily Governor Renato Schifani
said on Thursday.
The measure extends to other routes the discount introduced at
the start of 2024 on flights to Rome and Milan.
Under the move, some more vulnerable categories can also access
an additional 25% off by uploading their tickets onto a special
platform created by the Sicilian Region.
The measure aims to mitigate the above-average prices for air
fares to and from the island region and also to Sardinia, which
in 2023 came under the lens of Italy's Antitrust authority in
relation to the use of pricing algorithms.
