What Travelers Say

AI-Generated Summary Based on web research

Traveler sentiment at Abruzzo Airport (PSR) in Pescara, IT, is mixed. While some appreciate its convenient location and small size, others express significant dissatisfaction with its management, limited facilities, and inefficient processes. Overall satisfaction appears to be hampered by operational issues despite the airport's modern infrastructure.

What Travelers Love

Convenient Location: The airport is well-situated near major routes (SS5 and A14 motorway) and is only about 4 kilometers from the city center, making it easily accessible.
Easy to Reach: It's readily accessible by buses (operating 6 am-9 pm) and taxis.
Efficient for Short Stays: Its small size can mean quick transit times if security lines are managed well, with some travelers suggesting arrival just 10-15 minutes before scheduled departure (though official recommendations are much longer).
Business Lounge Available: There is a Business Lounge on the ground floor with pay-at-the-door access.
On-site Parking Options: The airport offers 500 parking spaces, with the terminal just a few meters away, and the first 15 minutes are free. Nearby private options like DRA Parking are also praised for being close and convenient.

Common Complaints

Poor Airport Management and Organization: Many reviews highlight terrible airport management, a perceived lack of organization, and poor decision-making leading to inefficient operations.
Limited Terminal Facilities & Amenities: Beyond security, facilities are sparse, typically limited to just a bar, a couple of eateries, and a souvenir shop, with no duty-free shopping. WiFi quality has also been rated poorly.
Inefficient Security Checks: Security queues are often described as badly managed, inefficient, and slow, with a single line serving the entire airport, leading to delays when multiple flights are scheduled simultaneously. Current estimated security wait times can be up to 28 minutes, and peak hours can see averages around 42 minutes.
Dirty Toilets and Poor Conditions: Several travelers have reported dirty toilets and generally poor environmental conditions within the airport.
No Overnight Sleeping: Travelers planning overnight stays have reported being told that sleeping is not allowed in the airport, requiring alternative arrangements.
Passport Control Issues: Some travelers have experienced "terrible deplaning and passport control" due to a lack of organization. However, current estimated immigration wait times are generally short, around 8 minutes.

Abruzzo Airport appears to be best suited for travelers seeking a quick, no-frills experience with low-cost carriers, leveraging its excellent geographical location. However, those expecting extensive amenities, seamless organization, or comfortable overnight stays may find the airport lacking due to recurrent issues with management, limited services, and crowded security.
