WELCOME ABOARD ALITALIA
Alitalia is Italy's biggest airline, and the world's 19th. Its fleet operates under five separate Air Operator Certificates due to the CAI merger. "Alitalia" is an Italian portmanteau of the words ali (wings), and Italia (Italy). Alitalia took over the name, the landing rights, many planes and some other assets from the liquidation process of the old Alitalia — Linee Aeree Italiane and the entire Air One. The company has its head office in Fiumicino, Italy. Its main hub is Leonardo da Vinci-Fiumicino Airport, Rome. Alitalia has code-share agreements with SkyTeam members, allowing passengers to fly to numerous destinations using a single Alitalia ticket. In July 2010, Alitalia joined leading SkyTeam members Air France, KLM and Delta's Transatlantic Joint Venture, meaning that the profits on flights across the Atlantic are shared between the four airlines.
