Here's where ITA will fly, long haul only to New York, Boston, Miami and Tokyo

The "new" ITA website has been operational for a few hours now., which is nothing more than a fork of the old Alitalia site. In fact, it is ITA itself that informs us that tickets are sold through Alitalia. If good mornings are any indication, this will not be a good day at all.

After months of waiting, the newco debuts with a nonsite, outsourcing ticket sales to the company it is going to replace-we are in the worst of Italian-style "solutions."

Here are the details of ITA, will take off with only 7 long-haul planes

At the moment, the portal www.itaspa.com is still in beta and not all routes have been uploaded, but the network of domestic, international, and intercontinental destinations seems now defined.

Where ITA will fly in Italy

In the country of 100 airports, those who expected a collaboration-oriented approach toereo+train as is the case in most of Europe will be disappointed. Too much political pressure to cut "absurd" flights in every respect such as a Rome/Naples or a Rome/Florence.

Here are the tricolor airports where ITA's new/old fleet will stop: Alghero, Brindisi, Bologna, Bari, Cagliari, Catania, Comiso, Rome, Genoa, Milan Linate, Naples, Olbia, Palermo, Pescara, Reggio Calabria, Lamezia Terme, Turin, Trieste, Venice and Verona. These will be joined by Florence starting with the 2022 summer schedule.

ITA's international routes

It is not yet clear which routes will be operated from Linate, certainly there should be no London due to Brexit, all routes will definitely be operated from Rome Fiumicino.

Alitalia tickets to fly after Oct. 15, here's what to do

It will fly to: Algiers, Amsterdam, Athens, Barcelona, Brussels, Cairo, Paris Charles de Gaulle, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Geneva, London Heathrow, Madrid, Malta, Munich, Nice, Paris Orly, Tirana, Tel Aviv, Tunis, and Zurich.

From next summer classic tourist destinations such as Malaga, Luxembourg, Marseille, Stuttgart and Valencia will be added. Flying to Belgrade and Sofia will have to wait until July.

Intercontinental routes

We had talked about the downsizing of the long-haul network, also in light of the only 7 aircraft that will remain in the new company's fleet. As of now, only 4 routes will be operated by ITA, probably only two New York and Tokyo Haneda will be daily, while the other two destinations Miami and Boston Will have a lower frequency.

With the end of March and the beginning of the summer aviation season, destinations will increase (but with which planes?), the network to the U.S. will be joined by flights to Los Angeles and the one toward Washington, D.C.. Ita will also return to connecting South America with the reopening of flights to Buenos Aires and São Paulo.

In conclusion

All as expected, it really seems that the giant has given birth to nothing new, indeed that these 18 months of gestation have resulted in no real novelty, no new approaches, but rather an attempt to reheat a soup that had already shut down all previous "restaurants."
