I last flew into PSA 3 months ago, landing 04L. The NOTAMS left me no doubt leaving the crew room that 04R was closed, I have also circled to 22R in the last year too. No issues...
Out of interest when I first started Shorthaul around Europe a long time ago, Italian ATC was pretty poor. Unintelligible, poorly thought clearances were just 'normal'. I have to say they have certainly improved the quality of transmission and the clearances are more thoughtful. Not saying 'perfect', but certainly a great improvement.
