Ua kākau hou ʻia nā puke moʻolelo e like me ka SEA's Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) i hōʻoia ai i ka hoʻomau ʻana o kāna ulu kalepa maikaʻi ʻana, me 24.6 miliona mau ohua e mālama ʻia ana i ka makahiki 2018, me ka ʻike ʻana i ka hale ʻaʻole i hiki wale aku akā wāwahi i kāna moʻohelu o nā huahana i hala (2007: 23.7 miliona) .
Hoʻohui hou kēia hopena ʻoihana (+ 11.5% makahiki-ma-ka makahiki) i kahi ʻano i ʻike ʻia ʻaʻole ulu wale ʻo Malpensa no ʻekolu mau makahiki me nā helu kiʻekiʻe ma luna o ka awelika, akā ʻike pū ʻia ke kūlana kiʻekiʻe ma waena o nā kahua mokulele nui o ʻEulopa (ʻoi aku ma mua o 20 miliona mau ohua) no kāna piʻi ulu ulu. I ka 2019, ʻo ka pahuhopu no ka puka makahiki i ʻoi aku ma mua o 25 miliona mau mākaʻi no ka manawa mua, a i ka wāwahi ʻana i kēia paepae, e hoʻokuʻi iā MXP i ka liki kiʻekiʻe o nā kahua mokulele ʻEulopa.
Kūleʻa ka ulu ʻana o ke kahua mokulele, no ka mea, kākoʻo ʻia ia e nā ʻāpana kalepa nui āpau: lōʻihi loa; kumu kūʻai haʻahaʻa; a me ka hoʻoilina. Me nā mokulele ʻē aʻe e ulu wikiwiki ana ʻo ʻEulopa a me nā ʻāina ʻē, ʻo Air Italia ke kanalua ʻole kekahi o nā kumu nui i ka holomua o ka MXP, mahalo i kāna kūlana hou i ka mākeke ʻItalia me Malpensa e hana nei ma ke ʻano he hub a me ke kahua. ʻO kāna mau pilina intercontinental (New York, Miami, Bangkok, Delhi a me Mumbai) a me nā mokulele kūloko (Roma, Napela, Lamezia Terme, Catania, Palermo a me Olbia) i hoʻomaka ʻia i ka makahiki 2018, e hui pū ʻia e nā ala hou i S19, ʻo ia hoʻi ʻo Los Angeles, Kapalakiko, Kikako, Toronto a me Cagliari. "ʻOiai kekahi o nā wahi hou i loaʻa i ka O & D koi makahiki ʻoi aku ma mua o 100,000 mau huakaʻi, kahaha loa lākou ʻaʻole i lawelawe ʻia e kekahi mokulele no hoʻokahi mau makahiki," wahi a Andrea Tucci, VP Aviation Business Development ma SEA.
Ma waena o nā mākeke ʻāina ʻEulopa e ulu wikiwiki nei mai MXP ma 2018 ka mākeke Italia kūloko, me Kelemania a me Sepania. I ka wā e pili ana i longhaul ʻo nā mākeke kiʻekiʻe ka US, Kina a me Kanada. "Kuhi piha mākou i ka ʻAkelanika ʻAkau ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea hōkū o kēia makahiki," i wehewehe ai ʻo Tucci. "Ua hāʻawi mua ʻo 2018 i kahi mea hoʻonui i kā mākou huakaʻi intercontinental, e ulu ana ma 7.8%, a ke manaʻo nei mākou i kahi hoʻomohala hou aʻe i ka wā pōkole."
ʻO ka lōʻihi o ka ulu ʻana ma Malpensa ʻaʻole ia e kalaiwa wale i kāna mau huakaʻi, akā ʻo ka maikaʻi o kāna waihona mea kūʻai aku - lawelawe ʻia ke kahua mokulele e 105 mau mokulele - a me kāna pūnaewele o 210 mau wahi. Ma ka hopena o ka hoʻonui ʻana ma nā mākeke / nā ʻāina i lawelawe ʻia mai MXP, ma W18 ke kahua mokulele ʻeiwa i ka honua, a ʻo ka ʻeono ma ʻEulopa, e pili ana i ka helu o nā ʻāina i lawelawe ʻia ma nā mokulele kū ʻole, ma mua o nā hub nui e like me e like me Munich a me Madrid.
"Ua kūkulu ʻia ʻo Malpensa ma ke ʻano he kahua mokulele hub a he mea pīhoihoi ka ʻike ʻana i ka hoʻohana ʻia ʻana i kēlā ala hou," hauʻoli ʻo Tucci. "ʻO ka 10 miliona mau kamaʻāina o Lombardy, ko Italia ʻāpana waiwai loa, pono a kūpono i kahi hub maoli a ʻōlelo i ka mea lawe a me nā manawa kūpono e lawe ai i kēlā ʻano pūnaewele. Me 70% o ka hoʻokele kūwaho o ka ʻāina i hoʻokumu ʻia i kā mākou hopu i ka ʻĀkau o ʻItalia, hilinaʻi mākou e pili ana i kā mākou ulu ʻana i ka wā e hiki mai ana.
I ka hoʻāʻo ʻana e pahu i nā helu o nā mokulele mokulele i ʻoi aku ke kiʻekiʻe, ʻo SEA Milan, ma ka inoa o Milan a me ka Lombardy Region, e hoʻokipa i ka hālāwai kūkā kamaʻilio pūnaewele 26th World Routes, ma waena o 5-8 Kepakemapa o ka makahiki aʻe ʻO ka ʻākoakoa ʻekolu e ʻae ai i nā kahua mokulele kiʻekiʻe a me nā mea hoʻoholo mokulele e hālāwai me ke alo a he alo a kūkākūkā i ka wā e hiki mai ana o nā lawelawe lewa, hoʻomohala a hoʻolālā i ka hoʻolālā kikowaena a e ʻimi i nā manawa kūpono hou.
Ua pani ka ʻōnaehana kahua mokulele ʻo Milan i ka makahiki 2018 me ka huina o 33.7 miliona mau ohua, kahi hoʻonui o 7% ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me 2017, me Milan Linate i hāʻawi aku iā 9.2 miliona mau ohua, iho -3.3% o kēlā me kēia makahiki. ʻO kēia hopena ma muli o ka hapa nui i ka hoʻoponopono hou ʻana o Alitalia a me Air Italia ma Linate, me nā ala ʻoihana nui ʻē aʻe o nā halihali e hoʻomau ʻia ana i kahi manawa o ka hoʻohui.
