SEA Prime, manager of the business and general aviation infrastructure at Milan's Linate and Malpensa airports under the Milano Prime brand, has closed 2022 with more than 32,600 business aviation movements, an increase of 20 per cent versus 2021 and of 33 per cent versus 2019, as compared to the 2022 European growth of 12.3 per cent versus the previous year.

Following the first Jet A1-ENI SAF refuelling at the end of 2021, starting from 2023 Milano Linate Prime has become the first business aviation airport in Italy offering all its customers and operators ENI Biojet, which mixes Jet A1 with 20 per cent biofuel produced from waste raw materials, animal fats and used vegetable oil.

A growing number of business aviation operators are in fact taking the lead in using renewable jet fuel to reduce their emissions and promote sustainable practices. SAF is a drop-in replacement for traditional fossil-based jet fuel that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by over 90 per cent.

“This new milestone for SEA Prime represents an important step towards our decarbonisation targets, together with the other concrete measures already implemented that include the utilisation of electric ramp equipment and investing in sustainable infrastructures such as the new hangar at Linate Prime,” says CEO Chiara Dorigotti.
