Napoli Capodichino Airport runway renovation

Overview

Napoli Capodichino Airport is scheduled to close completely from November 1 to November 30, 2026, to undergo radical runway redevelopment works. The airport operator, GESAC, and the aviation authority, Enac, have agreed to the closure to ensure necessary safety standards are met.

To manage the disruption, Salerno Costa d’Amalfi Airport will serve as a temporary hub, though its lower capacity means it cannot fully replace Naples. Various airlines are reorganizing their operations; while some, such as Eurowings and Ita Airways, are diverting certain connections to Salerno, others are implementing different strategies.

The Lufthansa Group has canceled all its flights to Naples for the month, with passengers potentially being rebooked to Rome-Fiumicino. Other carriers, including EasyJet, Ryanair, Wizz Air, and Volotea, are largely suspending their Naples operations during the renovation period.
