The apron in Elba
That apron looks great. How do you get parking on it (for a SEP)?
I wasn’t given an option, just marshalled to the “grass” but, as you can see, it’s hard and mainly dust at this time of year.
OK. Someone posted there is a new hard apron. In 2014 I parked here
so that looks like it is still there. That surface was ok…
The more pricey planes got tarmac
and – like with the notorious Calvi – it’s a good Q as to how you get that (in a SEP).
If requested there are also available hangars. I used it a couples of weeks ago, adding just 10€/day (MCR 01).
I am likely to be there, mid on my route from LCLK Larnaca (Cyprus) to LPSC Santa Cruz (Portugal).
Accommodation booked. Pretty few left on booking.com – however, it can be artificial due to usual practice of leaving just one or two units available on booking.com. I usually book few days before departing but on this occasion I decided to book early.
Yes booking.com shows just 1 room mostly; the usual trick.
I got two rooms in Hotel Lo Zizzolo. Not too expensive. Best to contact them directly; they are ok on email.
Almost nothing on airb&b.
If my kids decide to join last minute, I’ll try to get additional accommodation few days prior to departure.
In my case it would be my family first trip on the plane. Let’s see how it goes.
Booking shows a hotel right close to the airport. Any impressions on it?
