Aeroporto di Roma, a city of two names for one airport

Aeroporto di Roma, a city of two names for one airport In Europe, the hub-and-spoke mode of operation is even more history in the United States, arising from the past, the existing regulatory framework and the political and geographical conditions, not as a separate market will be. Every nation has its own flag, with a privileged position and throughout the national market and, often, a big govement stake. In most cases, the flag was for a considerable amount of subsidies or direct financial support from the state. The airport of Rome, the capacity constraints and the slot allocation regimes with the procedures currently in force in Europe, the most important barriers to market access and, consequently, for competition and economic efficiency. However, the Eteal City in 1961 decided on the name of Fiumicino (which means "little river channel - because the airport is situated at the end of the Tiber) the name of Leonardo da Vinci, in memory of the brilliant genius mind that Italy has ever had. Leonardo da Vinci, the airports operator, Airports of Rome, is a lot of money in expanding and upgrading terminal facilities to meet the needs of the growing number of traffic, and shaking the airport rather modest reputation. There are three of these terminals, Terminal C, is equipped with a satellite. The beautiful new Terminal A for domestic flights and replace spartan fuishings. Terminal B, an airy and light, has a dual function of a number of inteational and domestic services. Terminal C is located near the main inteational flights and is equipped with satellite-C, mini-terminal in its own right, with a full range of shopping, restaurants and other services. Inteational passengers will find the satellite a vast improvement compared to the old days, when the only way to the aircraft steps on many flights to a bus. Despite all the money for the satellite, but the risk is not completely removed. Three of the 14 targets are still at the beginning of a bus to a parked aircraft. How did it happen? The satellite is connected to terminal C of the "Skybridge" automated shuttle, the first of its kind in Italy, and there are plans to expand the service for the rest of the airport. This is good news for those who have trampede the endless corridors - the walkways are just some of the aid - the connection terminals. New area of shops and restaurants in Terminal B, like plans to refine the image and quality of the main airport of Rome gathers pace.
