Kolkata / Mumbai, Oct 29 (IBNS): Air Italy on Monday announced its entry into the Indian market, offering services from New Delhi and Mumbai to Milan effective December 7th and December 14th, 2018 respectively. Connecting Italy to two of the main business destinations in Asia, India will be the 4th international addition to the Air Italy network after the successful launch of its operations to New York (JFK), Miami (MIA) and Bangkok (BKK) from its new hub in Milan-Malpensa (MXP). 

Air Italy Chief Operating Officer, Rossen Dimitrov said: “We look forward to the connection between Italy and two of the main business and tourist destinations in Asia - Mumbai and New Delhi. Italy, a land of natural beauty, inhabited by people of fine tastes, indulging in hearty meals and bound to timeless traditions—is certainly something all Indians can relate to. With the launch of our India operations in December, we are excited to offer newer routes and a wider travel option to the discerning travelers from India. Our new service will increase convenience for business guests, leisure travelers as well as students, traveling between India and Italy, further strengthening commerce as well as tourism ties between the two countries.”

With the addition of the two new routes, Air Italy offers travelers a range of both domestic and international connectivity options from the airline’s hub and access to exclusive destinations.

Offering 24 seats in the exclusive Business Class cabin, Air Italy allows maximum comfort on fully reclining seats, an Italian menu accompanied by a selection of fine Italian wines and champagne, Wi-Fi service, extensive in-flight entertainment and personalized attention from the on-board staff. The Economy Class cabin, with 228 seats, offers Air Italy guests a very comfortable flight, a highly personalized service, Wi-Fi and a wide choice of on-board entertainment.
