Reggio Calabria Airport — Reggio Calabria, Italy

Reggio Calabria Airport, officially Tito Minniti Airport, serves the city of Reggio Calabria at the southern tip of mainland Italy near the Strait of Messina. REG offers domestic flights, mainly to Rome and Milan, and has historically also served nearby Messina in Sicily, since crossing the strait by air can be faster than combining ferry and road travel. The airport's runway length has at times been constrained by the coastal and mountainous terrain, limiting the aircraft types able to operate there. REG plays an important role for southern Calabria's economy and tourism, connecting a region otherwise dependent on long train or road journeys to northern Italy, and it occasionally handles seasonal charter traffic tied to the area's beaches and archaeological sites.
