Sobre CTA

Catania Fontanarossa (CTA) is the busiest airport in Sicily, and it keeps its lounge offering small and straightforward. We track two lounges, both in the modern Terminal A. The Angelo D'Arrigo VIP Lounge is the airside workhorse — it sits after passport control and security near Boarding Gates 5 and 6, takes DragonPass and the wider contract-lounge networks, and sells a walk-in day pass so you can pay per visit without any status. The ITA Airways Piazza Vincenzo Bellini lounge, opened in December 2023, is landside before the checkpoint and serves ITA Airways Business Class passengers and Volare Premium and Executive members, with access to an adjacent Fast Track lane. Before you clear security, be clear on which side of the checkpoint your lounge sits — the Angelo D'Arrigo VIP Lounge is airside, the ITA lounge landside.
