The airport was given the name Falcone-Borsellino in memory of the two leading anti-mafia judges Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino who were murdered by the mafia in 1992. A 1.90m diameter plaque featuring their portraits can be found to the right of one the main outside entrance to the departure hall, set into a mosaic of Sicily. Created by the sicilian sculptor Tommaso Geraci, it bears the inscription Giovanni Falcone - Paolo Borsellino - Gli Altri - L'orgoglio della Nuova Sicilia (Giovanni Falcone - Paolo Borsellino - The Others - The Pride of the New Sicily).
