		Good evening, the airport is about 30 km westof Palermo and given that time of night would make arrangements with your hotel in Palermo to have a car pick you up at the airport....
		It is the only airport symbol I see in that area, so I am left with the impression that the two airports you are referring to are probably one and the same.
		I thought Punta Raisi was the only airport near Palermo, but as others suggested, maybe there is also a military airbase or some little airport for small local planes.

	Cesare Manzella - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He was the head of the Mafia family in Cinisi, a small seaside town near the Punta Raisi Airport.
		As the airport was in their territory it was an invaluable asset for the import and export of contraband, including narcotics.
		After a stay in the United States, where he had many contacts, Manzella settled back in Cinisi after he was expelled by US authorities in 1947.

		The SP version of the 747 always turned heads at airports around the world because of its unusually short fuselage length as compared to its overall size and I believe was more deserving of the nickname "Fat Albert", more so than the 737 was!
		Punta Raisi Airport, located at the city of Palermo, on the island of Sicily (Italy) in the Mediterranean Sea, is one of the principal stops for many airlines on International flights between Africa and many points in Europe!
		The default (FS2000) Punta Raisi Airport is rather sparse and devoid of all but a couple of runways and a couple of buildings, but that's typical.

	ASN Aircraft accident description McDonnell Douglas DC-9-32 I-DIKQ - Palermo
		The final part of the approach (about two miles) is to be flown visually, the crew having to turn left to line up for runway 21, which had a magnetic heading of 206¦.
		The aircraft stopped descent at about 150 feet above the sea, as if the pilot was trying to locate the final approach area, thinking to be very close to the runway (this feeling was enhanced by the light geometry around the airport).
		For about nine seconds the aircraft flew almost level with the sea at 150 knots, then the wind helped to loose the final feet and the right wing impacted water.

		I am leaving for Sicily next Friday (5/20/05), and I still have not been able to come up with lodging near the airport (Punta Raisi or whatever they are calling it today).
		I can't help re the airport hotel, but if you taxi into Palermo you can pick up your car in town the next day (and avoid a possible airport surcharge).
		I was thinking of touring Palermo at the end of the trip AFTER we turn in the car.

		Punta Raisi Airport reminded him of the New York Stock Exchange floor except for the tantalizing food aromas, giggles of children, gurgles of affection, and icy automatic weapons.
		It was an airport of contrasts, no different from the island of contrasts it served.
