Alitalia: if you are flying with them, do confirm your flight
Alitalia has announced a substantial reduction on the number of flights it operates. The airline is up to its neck in debt and while it awaits for the new controllers, it had no other alternative but to cut flights. A temporary reduction is being mentioned, but it is almost certain its flight network will be substantially reduced once CAI, its new controller, is in control. If you are flying Alitalia, we encourage you to confirm all your flights.
Life for the new Alitalia will be no bed of roses. As CAI has among its members the owners of Air One, which in turn had a partnership with Lufthansa, the German airline is making a move and creating an Italian subsidiary: Lufthansa Italia. Other companies are after the slots left behind by Alitalia.
