AeroItalia will be operational in spring/summer, the company's headquarters is Rome; still to be decided the HUB, but most likely it will be Fiumicino.
The person behind the birth of AeroItalia is. Gaetano Intrieri, Toninelli's former adviser, along with a string of investors, including German Efromovich, former founder of Avianca, who proposed to take over Alitalia, although offers were rejected. There is also Marc Bourgade, French banker active in the air transport industry.
"We will take pilots who are already qualified in the machines we have chosen; it is not to compete with Ita that we are born. We will do different things: we have a clear goal, defined costs, a thoughtful and competitive plan. And more than competition we will do alliance. It certainly won't be a small company.
It will be a perfectly long-haul carrier with a focus on routes to South America. It will not be a low cost in the known sense, which is often misrepresented: our company will be low cost in the sense that there will be a special focus on operating costs through the implementation of a control model appropriate to the complexities of the business."
Francesco Gaetano Intrieri
The official website is still under construction, but is already collecting nominations for various job positions. On Intrieri's official page we can see some updates on the AeroItalia fleet.
Still all a work in progress but, if promises are kept, we will have a carrier that will increase domestic routes and also allow a new link with the Americas affordable.
