The National Civil Aviation Authority today, Aug. 18, 2021, issued ITA (Italia Trasporto Aereo) with the Air Operator Certificate (AOC) and Air Transport Operating License.
In this article:
"ITA can take off - said Enac President and State Lawyer Pierluigi Di Palma - The hope is that the new national reference company will contribute to the restart of the sector, contributing, in a decisive way to overcome the difficulties arising from the pandemic crisis. ENAC will continue in its institutional and technical task to ensure the operational start-up of ITA, overseeing the respect of public interests and passenger rights, which are essential elements of the air transport business."
Alessio Quaranta, director general of ENAC, also points out that "the issuance of the AOC certifies that the airline has the professional capacity and business organization necessary to ensure the safe operation of its aircraft. The air operator's license constitutes the final measure related to legal-administrative and economic-financial, as well as technical-operational, verifications."
"With possession of the AOC and air operator's license, the company can start selling tickets.", he explains. Tickets will presumably go on sale within a maximum of 24 hours, at the same time the old Alitalita will stop selling tickets for flights departing after 11:59 p.m. on Oct. 14.
