SEA Prime focuses on sustainability and the expansion of Linate Prime
After participating in NBAA-BACE 2024 in Las Vegas, the company is engaged in strategic infrastructure projects, in particular at the Terminal Prime in Linate, in view of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Olympic Games
SEA Prime participated in the 2024 edition of NBAA-BACE, one of the most prestigious business aviation events, held in Las Vegas from 22 to 24 October. SEA Prime's participation in NBAA-BACE 2024 follows a positive performance, with approximately 27,000 movements recorded in the first nine months of the year, in line with 2023 levels. In particular, traffic to and from North American destinations grew by 4% year-on-year, driven by major events such as Milan Fashion Week and the F1 Grand Prix.
In consolidating its growth, the company remains focused on strategic infrastructure projects, in particular at the Prime Terminal in Linate, in view of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Olympic Games. Key developments include the 10,000 sqm expansion of the Linate Prime forecourt, designed to increase parking areas. In addition, the Prime terminal at Linate will undergo a major expansion, increasing its surface area by approximately 2,400 square meters. This project will renew existing infrastructure, adding new lounge spaces and passenger service areas to enhance the customer experience.
Sustainability is at the heart of the transformation of the Prime Terminal at Linate. Existing facilities will be repurposed and advanced technologies will be integrated to improve energy efficiency. The roof will be equipped with photovoltaic panels for renewable energy generation, while state-of-the-art heating and air conditioning systems will significantly reduce energy consumption and minimize environmental impact, ensuring optimal indoor air quality with minimal energy consumption.

"As we continue to strengthen our leadership in business aviation in Italy and Europe, we are seizing the opportunity offered by the Milan-Cortina 2026 Olympic Games. The expansion of Linate Prime underlines our commitment to providing our customers with a terminal with high standards of service and sustainability," said Chiara Dorigotti, CEO of SEA Prime.
On the subject of sustainability, SEA Prime recently launched a project to also incentivize the use of biofuels with a contribution of 1,000 euros for each ton of pure Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) for the refueling of business aviation aircraft in the Prime terminals of Linate and Milan Prime Malpensa by 2024.
