very hygienic affollati.Servizi Premises to the limit of decency (dirty bathrooms, runinetterie defective or malfunctioning, partially flooded floors)
The question is whether there are plans to control cleaning companies!

At the security checkpoint, they collected a bottle of Zibibbo, the thousandth of a stock. The sealed bottle was not dangerous. The inspector withdrew it because it was considered a dangerous object and the bottle was inserted in the solidarity package. Now wine is also an object of solidarity. Happy toast to the vigilantes of Catania airport.

Although it is a small airport, there are several shops where you can buy souvenirs such as olive oil and cannolo at the boarding gate, so people who bought tickets with only baggage can bring their souvenirs to the plane with peace of mind.

Total disorganization. Dirty in common areas with stacked rubbish (I put the photo)
At 9 pm the security check was impossible to eat a sandwich. All finished!! Even the arancini were sold like hot cakes, no pizza .. Nothing at all !!

Fortunately, our flight was on time.

Attention! My luggage weight was 13kg, Fontanarossa Check in made me pay for 22.5kg !!!!!!!!!!!
They weigh your luggage weight wrong !!!!! They calculate wrong. They weigh the baggage incorrectly: they weigh the suitcase 12kg More than there is actually.

Quite modern airport terminal, but security was crowded when we were there and also the airside area was very crowded with too less seating possibilities. All soap on the toilets were empty, which is an absolute no go.

No smoking area after security check, toilets very dirty, roof is not leakproof, everywhere was water on the floor, seats and other thing. The airport really needs a completely refurbishment, like everything in Catania.

The main and only airprt of Catania. The second most important one in Sicily after the one of Palermo.
To reach it, you can take flixbus for 4 or just take ATM bus number 524, it's the cheapest way (1.6 )

Excellent airport and well managed. For those who say it is confusing, it is because they did not stop to read the directions or at most ask the staff. The prices are high just like in the others.
It is not fair to accept any problems with the companies from the structure.

Airport control in Italian, say quickly quickly and no real safety precautions, water is brought in without problems, if not wanted. Bars at the airport are overpriced and don't taste good either. Staff is pretty, well, freaked and on the flight you can easily calculate with 20 minutes delay on average. At least the Aeroporto does not have the Sicilian garbage problem or is it well concealed.

From reviews I thought before leaving a poorly organized airport.
Instead, I have been lucky, but I found a great service, no queues in the controls, and clean bathrooms aereostazione.
Several shops and pastry bar at good prices, definitely lower airports of northern Italy.

In the face of social distancing ... they manage to check in to two flights together in the same row, guaranteeing travelers a higher possibility of contagion. But is it possible that scientists in Italy put them all in command?

Regarding the departure area.. A completly torrented down charge point, not enough seatings, and not enough places to have a bite and lounge. Very small, so things are easy to find.. besides the charging points. I very hope this airport never expands in this condition.
There was a section at the top of the airport somehow under construction but seemed not to be worked on it for weeks, it was in Limbo i quess.
Regarding the very view charging possibilities go to the stairs that lead to the ground floor. You will be seatless charging you phone...
If you go to this airport than come just in time... not any earlier!!

Horrible organization, huge lines, completely unprofessional attitude of the staff at the check-in, chaos and idleness. Only the seller in Heinemann at the 19th exit works clearly and quickly, it s really good)) it s better to arrive in advance, we were 2 hours ahead and barely had time to land!

Few and confusing indications, not very courteous staff, few places where you can lean and arrange your bags or figure out where to go. There are always the.exceptions but overall today I had qs impression.Va bene covid emergency but .. in short.

I cannot confirm the negative reports here. The baggage is checked in and checked out quickly. So far there has been no theft and I fly to / from Catania very often. Fast connection to Catania city and also quickly accessible from the surrounding area. Transport by bus from / to the plane from the gates is also quick and easy. To non-free WiFi: people, after the roaming charges in the EU have dropped, each of you will probably be able to surf on vacation using the local data tariff. Is also faster than the most congested public wifi hotspots no matter whether Italy, Austria or Germany !!! ;-))

Long queues at the security check and then a "check" that hardly deserves to be called that - when the metal detector beeps, you are actually scanned and not waved through. Otherwise, the clarity and signage could be improved.

Mediocre management in the Covid period, for arrivals: you cannot enter the airport, without any alternative waiting facility (in the height of summer) and without the presence of information boards

Good airport, sufficiently served by shops, including McDonald's. Modern structure. Too bad that to go to Taormina, after 20 30 there is no longer the bus. There are two alternatives: the taxi, or go by tram to Catania and use the train.

Super good airport and super fast service to some problem. I forgot a bag in one of the shuttle buses that take you to the plane when you do not have a finger. I told the operator in charge and called for the bus to return, all in less than 10 minutes!

The boarding area is tiny and it is very difficult to buy water. If you want to fill the bottle in the toilets it is impossible because it only comes out hot. They have a machine and it got locked when we wanted to get a bottle. We run out of water and thirsty. Embarrassing that a European airport does not have fresh water in the middle of August and at 37 degrees of temperature.

Airport that would need to be made more modern, bathrooms before the checks quite clean, those after the security checks to be modernized. Overall, a sufficient airport that could easily grow.

One of the main Sicilian airports well connected by road axes such as the motorway and other connections and therefore easy to reach. Equipped with large car parks of its relevance but also with numerous private car parks with shuttle service, comfortable and efficient, which are cheaper. The airport is large and well managed even if there is no smoking area and, for those who have this problem or need, it is an inconvenience to have to leave and re-enter the facility and be subjected to checks and queues again. The bars and shops inside are well stocked, not so expensive and to be considered normal. From my experience I prefer the airport of Palermo which is less claustrophobic and with more autonomous and simple connections, given the fact that there is a railway line that allows you to directly reach the airport with comfortable and modern trains.

Airport not very large and yet rather confusing. Not prepared to handle a large influx of travelers. The controls seemed to me unscrupulous to facilitate the speed of the entrance. Apart from this completely personal impression, the arrangement of the shops behind the gates also does not facilitate mobility within the airport.

Be careful folks they steal from you checked-in baggage even if you have a padlock on it. They break-in to steal electronics(breaking your baggage doing it. In my case iall the zips are missing so im throwing away my baggage in the middle of my vacations). Never again alitalia. By the way the people laugh at you when you complain in the baggage claiming desk if you are a tourist.
Really sad culture never coming again

So far CTA has been the worst airport I have flown to, and I have been to many airports. Some of the most unfriendly staff you will ever meet, plus on their busiest day of the week they only have one line open on the check in. Make sure to get to this airport EARLY to make sure that you have time to deal with the extremely slow and unpleasant staff. Not to mention the bathrooms had no soap in any of the dispensers and not one stall had toilet paper. I now have a dirty bottom and my ass hurts sitting on their rock solid chairs.

On 7 August I waited two hours for the baggage to arrive from Linate. The airport was submerged in undelivered baggage and the rolls full of suitcases not delivered in the previous days! I had to resort to the help of the carabinieri to get the luggage that I had seen loaded onto my plane and that therefore had to have arrived with me!
Today 19 August the departing baths are unusable due to dirt and neglect; the sinks, coated in gray, probably have not been cleaned for ... millennia. The bar is dirty, on the table you don't know where to lean! The announcements that reverberate to the loudspeaker are not understandable! But can you ?!

Perfect for a drink.

Perfect for a drink.
Perfect for a bite to eat.
Near the center.
Efficient buses.
I love Catania also for this.
My Miss Monaco and I love it.
You arrive, get off the plane and you have the scent of the island.
Also perfect for returning after a thoughtful shopping.

Little to say about the airport, services fast enough. Pity about the bathrooms, very rude housekeeping staff. I represented my urgent need, answer: it must wait 20 minutes for it to dry .... Too bad a bus was waiting for me .....

Discreet airport but dizzying prices, everything purchased around Sicily, in the only duty free of the airport costs twice as much. If you really have to buy at the limit and do it well in the two Sicilian delicacy shops (cannoli, arancine etc ... which are opposite each other. Those deserve 4 full stars.

Cute

Bad service As always:

Bad service As always:
Dilapidated buses with air conditioning filters full of dust.
In the maneuver to start, the rear bumper was uprooted but at least this time the engine was not broken.
Customers with priority boarding have been boarded together with everyone, throwing away the extra money spent.

This airport misses a lot of information signs and one which exists are missleading. Also it's only possible to check-in 2 hours before flight and the only "waiting area" is MacDonalds.
Business lounge is a joke: there is room for 10 people, they do have only prosecco, water, juices and chips.
