Sicily’s Trapani Airport on the western coastline of the island has been closed to civilian operations by the Italian Air Force due to the military action in Libya. The Ryanair base at the airport will remain out of bounds until at least 28 March 2011. All of Ryanair’s flights will instead arrive and depart from Palermo, to the east of the island. Italian carriers Air One and Meridiana Fly also used to operate out of Trapani.
