There are many relationships with important third sector companies, engaged in the non-profit and social sectors. Often, during the Christmas period, children suffering from illnesses or disabilities are brought for flights.

Seaplanes are used by journalists and troupes from all over the world, who provide reports, images and videos to their countries, giving an incredible visibility and profile to Como and its lake.
