This is an avoid at all costs airport, which I’m guessing is exactly what they want. No GA. Fraport were a nightmare and Swissport initially seemed helpful, but having quoted 200 euros handling ended up stuffing me 550 with no recourse Fuel was eye watering but to be fair it’s an island. I only got PPR for two days parking with the potential to extend, which they did, but then threw me out without reason. My mistake for being optimistic. I would recommend doing what I ended up having to do which was parking at LGIO and then getting a taxi / ferry back. Taxi was an hour and 90 euros to the port, ferry an hour and a half and 10 euros. I’ve not yet had the bill from LGIO but will update the database as I do.
