We had written it in recent days e It seems that the big day is just around the corner. Of course Vujadin Boškov would call everyone back to calm with his proverbial : "Penalty is when referee blows the whistle," but it would seem to be just more a matter of form.
In this article:
This was said by Economy Minister and ITA "master" Airways Giorgetti. "I believe that in these days there is still a lot of intensive, hard work going on. Let's say the date is set, the bride and groom and witnesses are summoned. Anything can happen. Right now I think we are going to get married, however, anything can be. The long-awaited wedding. Bride and witnesses are summoned however, the Don Abbondio of the situation might not show up."
The news comes just minutes after ITA Airways issued a press release in which it confirmed that it has been awarded a 4-star Skytrax rating, the same qualification as Lufthansa and one step below the 5-star rating that is the highest excellence in the aviation world.
The marriage between ITA Airways and Lufthansa. however, will still have to pass a few more steps before being celebrated, but the technical green light received in these hours would (almost) put an end to the first half and open up the second phase of the operation. Integration and collaboration should be discussed after the signing among carriers net of restrictions imposed by the European commission.
