Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport. The most beautiful airport

Built in an easily accessible location, it harmoniously blends in with the town and its natural surroundings.

Plenty of greenery, terminals with a low environmental impact and a control tower, the third largest and most technologically advanced in Italy.
The area surrounding the airport is of the highest quality. One of the features passengers often remark on is the typical scent of the Mediterranean scrubland that fills the air, a delight for the senses. A passenger once said, “If I were brought to Olbia Airport blindfolded and unaware, I would recognise the place by the unique natural scents the moment the aircraft door opens.”

Built in 1974, it has been managed by GEASAR S.p.A. since 1985 and features a terminal dedicated to private flights, “Eccelsa Aviation”, one of Italy’s top private airports and among the best facilities in Europe.

The various terminals offer a wide range of services and there are numerous adjacent shopping centres. The car rental terminal is unique in Italy, perhaps even in Europe, for its beautiful design and the wide range of rental companies it hosts.
The airport has strong growth potential and is preparing to handle over 3 million passengers at full capacity, and possibly 4.5 million in the near future.
A challenge which, if achieved, would ensure a strong revival of tourism development across the entire area.

So, whether you are planning a trip or thinking of moving to our island, choose to land at Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport, the “gateway to Sardinia“.
