Tips for 35 min Connections
This is a military base, not a commercial airport, so civilian travelers cannot simply book connecting flights here.
Access requires military ID, orders, or pre-approved base entry, which affects any transit time far more than terminal layout.
If you have official business here, confirm flight status directly with the passenger terminal since there's no public flight information display system.
For any genuine international or domestic connection in the region, plan to transfer via Venice or Trieste airports instead.
Space-available (Space-A) flyers should arrive well in advance since manifest calls and security screening are less predictable than commercial schedules.
Busyness — Connection Risk

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
Getting Between Concourses
The base has a single small passenger terminal used for space-available military flights and charters, so there is no inter-terminal transit system. Any transfer is a short walk within one building, and security re-screening is handled by military police/base security rather than TSA-style civilian screening.
