Pastine International Airport or simply Rome Ciampino Airport, is both a commercial and armed forces airport in Rome Italy which is one of the only two airfields in the area. It is located about 12 kilometers southeast from the focal point of Rome and is near the Greater Ring Road.
It started its operation in 1916 and one of the world’s longest running airports.

However, in 1960, the Leonardo da Vinci Airport opened and became the main airport of Rome replacing the former. Since then, the Ciampino airport has been handling mostly exclusive and chartered flights.
After years of decreasing passenger traffic, low-cost airline carriers have boosted the Ciampino airport and again, it has now become one of the most congested airport in Italy when it comes to passenger and cargo traffic.
