DOHA, 19 April 2018: Qatar Airways has signed a new codeshare agreement with Air Italy, following its purchase of a 49% stake in the Italian airline’s parent company, late last year.
The new agreement, effective 24 April, provides codeshares on Air Italy’s routes between Milan-Malpensa Airport and six domestic cities across Italy.
The featured cities are: Catania (CTA); Rome (FCO); Naples (NAP); Olbia (OLB)’ Palermo (PMO) and Calabria (SUF).
The agreement also involves Air Italy’s route between Rome Fiumicino Airport and Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (OLB).
From 24 April Air Italy will also offer codeshare flights on all of Qatar Airways’ Italy to Doha services along with two further routes on the Qatar Airways network to Singapore and Male.
Last February, the airline announced a new phase of growth starting with its brand new identity and livery as Air Italy. The new airline aims to acquire 50 aircraft by 2022, and has already committed to receiving 20 brand new Boeing 737-Max aircraft type, starting this month.
