ITA (Italia Trasporto Aereo) soll Mitte Oktober fliegen …
Todgesagte leben länger, gerade bei Alitalia stimmt dieser Spruch definitiv. Die letzten Jahre waren keine rosige Zeiten für Alitalia. Das Etihad Engagement hat nicht gefruchtet. Was Covid-19 mit den Airlines gemacht hat, wissen wir.
Ende 2020 hat man mit ITA (Italia Trasporto Aereo) eine Nachfolgegesellschaft für Alitalia gegründet. Mitte Oktober soll nun die neue Fluggesellschaft fliegen.
Die Infos:
„ITA (Italia Trasporto Aereo) will be operational from October the 15th, flying a fleet of 52 aircraft that will grow to 105 by the end of 2025, as envisaged in the 2021-2025 business plan approved by the Board of Directors of the newly established company destined to take over from Alitalia. The plan also provides for the ‚discontinuity‘ requested by the European Commission during negotiations with the Italian Government over the past few months. ITA will be able to acquire, through direct negotiation with Alitalia, the assets to manage the flight sector, the so-called ‚aviation‘ branch. The Alitalia brand will be sold through a public tender, issued and managed by Alitalia, in which ITA itself will participate, as it believes that the brand is an essential element for the plan. ‚Ground Handling‘ and ‘Maintenance‘ activities will also be contracted through a public tender.
ITA will initially operate with a fleet of 52 aircraft. By 2022, it will grow to 78 aircraft and, from 2022 onwards, new-generation aircraft will be gradually added to the fleet. By the end of 2025, the number of aircraft will rise to 105.
…
At first, the airline will fly to 45 destinations with 61 routes, growing to 74 destinations and 89 routes by 2025. As for long-haul routes, ITA will initially provide connections to New York, Tokyo, Boston and Miami, but new routes to São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Washington and Los Angeles are expected to be added in the summer 2022. From Fiumicino (Rome) and Linate (Milan) airports there will be connections to the main EU destinations.“
