Info
Orio al Serio International Airport (IATA: BGY, ICAO: LIME), also known as Il Caravaggio International Airport, is an international airport located in the municipal territory of Orio al Serio, 2 nautical miles (3.7 kilometres; 2.3 miles) southeast of Bergamo in Italy. The airport is 45 km (28 mi) north-east of Milan, which it serves together with Malpensa Airport and Linate Airport, the city's two primary airports. The airport served 10,404,625 passengers in 2015 and is the third busiest in Italy.Despite being called Milan/Bergamo Airport or similar by some low-cost airlines, neither "Milan" nor "Bergamo" are part of the airports official naming.
The airport is managed by SACBO, a company partially owned by SEA – Aeroporti di Milano, the operator of Linate and Malpensa airports. SEA, the company that runs the latter two airports, also holds a 31% stake in SACBO. It is named "Il Caravaggio" after the Baroque painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, who lived as a child at Caravaggio in the Province of Bergamo.
