History
In June 2016, a public opinion poll decided to no longer support the highly deficient airport with money from the government. Therefore, it has been decided that the airport's operator company will be liquidated and the licence given back to the Italian authorities which means the airport will be shut down entirely if no other operator is found. South Tirol spend over €120 million in recent years for the airport without attracting any lasting scheduled traffic.
