  "terminal_info": "Vincenzo Florio Airport Trapani-Birgi, also known as Trapani-Birgi Airport, is a unique dual-use aviation facility serving Western Sicily. Established in the 1960s as a primary military base (Birgi Air Base), it continues to serve as a strategic NATO installation while hosting a modern civilian terminal. The facility gained international prominence in the mid-2000s when it was transformed into a major low-cost carrier hub, serving as the primary gateway for travelers exploring the historic town of Erice, the Egadi Islands, and the popular beaches of San Vito Lo Capo.\n\nThe civilian terminal was significantly modernized during the height of the low-cost expansion, featuring a streamlined two-level design that efficiently separates arrivals and departures. The ground floor houses the arrivals hall, baggage claim, and essential passenger services, while the first floor features the departure area with several boarding gates, duty-free shops, and cafes offering local Sicilian specialties. Despite its dual-use nature, the passenger terminal maintains a high level of accessibility and provides a comfortable environment for both domestic and international travelers.\n\nOperational history has seen significant fluctuations, most notably during the 2011 military intervention in Libya when the airport was closed to civilian traffic due to its critical role as a NATO base. Following this, the airport underwent a period of transition and is currently rebuilding its network as a vital secondary hub for Sicily. The single runway, shared with the Italian Air Force, is capable of handling large narrow-body aircraft typical of low-cost operations. The airport remains a crucial economic driver for the Trapani region, offering a less congested alternative to the larger airports in Palermo and Catania.",
