January to present ITA Airways, Italy's new flag carrier, has begun the restyling of the fleet it inherited from Alitalia. At the moment, the make-up only involved the livery which from white Alitalia has become an immense expanse of blue.
Light blue like the colors of the Italian national teams in the world of sports, champions of all disciplines to whom ITA Airways marketing wanted to name the planes in the fleet. So from Italy's two most famous Reds, namely Paolo and Valentino, there are more than 30 planes that ad today bear the name of a blue champion.
The latest addition is the third A350/900, the new flagship of the Italian fleet. The first two were named after Marcello Lippi and Valentino Rossi, while the third, who recently arrived at Fiumicino, bears the name of the Divin Codino: for those who are not soccer fans, we are talking about Roberto Baggio. Italy's penultimate Ballon d'Or, the number 10 played for many teams before leaving soccer wearing the Brescia jersey.
According to some news sources, this will be the plane that will be used on the June 2 to inaugurate the longest route in ITA Airways' network, or the link between Rome and Buenos Aires. E we at TFC will be on board this very plane..
Baggio will be present at the gate to greet passengers ready to board flight AZ680, which will take off at 9:45 p.m. for the Argentine capital.
