What the welcome gift contains
In recent days, several readers have reported to us that they have received the envelope containing the gift, so we could not refrain from doing our first unboxing. The package is black, as is the Executive card.
As mentioned, only those enrolled at the highest level will have The honor of receiving the physical card. Personally, I have always looked forward to the time when I could unpack it from the envelope, but by now it is one of those collectibles Which is bound to disappear since it practically All companies have switched to the digital version.
Under the card is a personalized letter with which the Volare team thanks the cardholder.
The gift is a luggage tag: not the most imaginative, but as they say, "don't look a gift horse in the mouth." The choice, however, is different from what many companies used to do.
While Flying Blue and other programs sent labels that were already customized and ready to use, ITA opted for a middle ground.
The envelope is marked, but the contents are to be filled in by hand.
Appreciate the quality and the fact that the Made in Italy carrier chose for a product handmade in our country.
In conclusion
This was a due submission, since it was one of the benefits provided for TOP customers. Of course, we could have expected a more interesting and less discounted gift or perhaps it would have been better to specify from the beginning that Executive members would also receive the luggage tag. Now, however, we are waiting to receive the more concrete benefits such as the status recognition, the accumulation of points when flying with other carriers of the same alliance and especially the possibility of being able to redeem prize tickets and not just a cash+miles.
