## Description

UPS Airlines anchors the freight side of Marche Airport (IATA: AOI, ICAO: LIPY), flying regular services to its European hubs at Bergamo and Cologne/Bonn, with Mistral Air on domestic routes and ground handler Volatyle providing cargo handling, IATA dangerous-goods acceptance, warehousing and on-site customs clearance. The Marche region's only commercial airport sits at Falconara Marittima, about 12 km west of Ancona on the Adriatic coast and just 2 km from the A14 'Ancona Nord' exit. It handled some 600,000 passengers in 2024, up almost 16% on 2023, and its 2,962-metre runway 04/22 can take larger freighters. The traffic serves the export-driven Marche economy — footwear and fashion (Tod's, Hogan), furniture and ceramics around Pesaro. Ancona International Airport S.p.A., backed by the Njord investment group, has run the airport since 2021.
