The EU Commission has approved, under
EU state aid rules, an Italian €30 million scheme to support the
creation of new air connections to and from airports in the
region of Sardinia, EC sources said Tuesday.
The aim of the scheme is to improve the mobility of residents in
Sardinia, which qualifies as a remote region under EU state aid
rules, as well as connectivity between Sardinia and other EU
regions.
In view of these objectives, the scheme also aims to increase
air passenger traffic to and from Sardinia outside the tourist
season, when connections are scarce.
