The full reopening of Catania airport was delayed on Wednesday because more work is needed to repair the damage caused by a fire on Sunday night, Azernews reports, citing ANSA.

As a result, the airport's Terminal A remains closed for the moment.

The airport had been scheduled to fully reopen at 14:00 on Wednesday.

SAC, the company that runs the airport, said 10 flights would arrive and 10 depart from Terminal C on Wednesday.

The flights are operated by Ryanair and Lufthansa.
