Northwest Italy airport system merger proposal

Overview

Sea, the operator of Milan’s Linate and Malpensa airports, and Sagat, the manager of Turin Caselle, are conducting a feasibility study for a corporate integration to create a unified airport system in Northwest Italy. The project aims to coordinate investments and strategies across the three hubs to increase negotiating power with airlines and facilitate new routes.

The initiative aligns with the Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport’s National Airport Plan 2026-2035. Technical evaluations regarding the merger are expected to be presented to shareholders in September. Under the proposed plan, the Municipality of Milan is expected to maintain its 54.8% majority stake in the new entity. Key stakeholders include F2i, which controls Sagat through 2i Aeroporti and holds a 45% stake in Sea.
