'''Falcone Borsellino Airport''' {{airport codes|PMO|LICJ}} ({{langx|it|link=no|Aeroporto Falcone Borsellino}}) or simply '''Palermo Airport''', formerly '''Punta Raisi Airport''', is an international airport located at [[Cinisi]], {{cvt|19|NM|lk=in}} west-northwest<ref name="AIP"/> of [[Palermo]], the capital city of the Italian island of [[Sicily]]. It is the second biggest airport in Sicily in terms of passengers after [[Catania-Fontanarossa Airport]], with 7,118,087 passengers handled in 2022.

==History==
The airport was given the name ''Falcone Borsellino'' in memory of the two leading [[anti-mafia]] judges [[Giovanni Falcone]] and [[Paolo Borsellino]] who were murdered by the [[Sicilian Mafia]] in 1992. A {{convert|1.90|m|ft|-diameter|adj=mid}} plaque featuring their portraits can be found to the right of one of the main outside entrances to the departure hall, set into a mosaic of Sicily. Created by the Sicilian sculptor [[Tommaso Geraci]], it bears the inscription ''Giovanni Falcone–Paolo Borsellino–Gli Altri–L'orgoglio della Nuova Sicilia'' (''Giovanni Falcone–Paolo Borsellino–The Others–The Pride of the New Sicily'').

In 1994, GESAP was charged with the partial management of the airport through a convention which granted the company a 20-year mandate to run land-side activities (the airport buildings and surrounding areas). In April 1999, GESAP obtained an anticipated mandate to manage the airport's air side activities, and, more specifically, the flight infrastructure (runways, links, taxiways and aprons).

In June 2005, [[Eurofly]] launched seasonal flights from Palermo to New York City using Airbus A330s.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/05/15/travel/advisory-travel-notes-comings-and-goings.html | title=Advisory: Travel notes; Comings and goings | work=The New York Times | date=15 May 2005 | accessdate=14 January 2022 | author=Connelly, Marjorie}}</ref><ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.post-gazette.com/business/businessnews/2005/05/10/New-bargain-airlines-offer-cheaper-fares-to-Europe/stories/200505100137 | title=New bargain airlines offer cheaper fares to Europe | work=The Wall Street Journal | date=10 May 2005 | accessdate=14 January 2022 | author=McCartney, Scott}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.palermotoday.it/cronaca/palermo-new-york-raddoppiati-voli.html | title=Meridiana, Palermo più vicina a New York: raddoppiati i voli | work=Palermo Today | date=26 November 2015 | accessdate=14 January 2022 | language=Italian}}</ref> The company merged with Meridiana in 2010 to create [[Meridiana|Meridiana Fly]], which continued the service.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.flightglobal.com/merged-life-begins-for-meridiana-and-eurofly/92252.article | title=Merged life begins for Meridiana and Eurofly | work=Airline Business | date=2010-03-01 | accessdate=2023-05-30 | author=Dunn, Graham}}</ref> As a result of Meridiana Fly's decision to rebrand as Air Italy, the route ended in October 2017.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.palermotoday.it/cronaca/volo-palermo-new-york-united-airlines-gesap.html | title=L'America si avvicina: da maggio torna il volo Palermo-New York | work=Palermo Today | date=22 August 2019 | accessdate=14 January 2022 | language=Italian}}</ref><ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.ch-aviation.com/portal/news/80970-palermo-to-see-tatl-flights-as-united-expands-to-europe | title=Palermo to see TATL flights as United expands to Europe | work=Ch-aviation | date=24 August 2019 | accessdate=14 January 2022}}</ref> Neos commenced a summer-seasonal route in June 2024 with [[Boeing 787 Dreamliner]]s, reconnecting Palermo to [[John F.
