Starting today, the partnership will provide greater connectivity and more options to customers of both airlines traveling between Spain and Italy to and from the carriers’ respective Rome and Madrid hubs.

The codeshare will also provide ITA Airways and Air Europa customers with single ticket travel and destination baggage transfers when flying on either airline.


In Monday’s announcement, ITA Airways’ Chief Commercial Officer, Emiliana Limosani, said,


“We are happy to have signed this important commercial agreement with Air Europa, a key partner for the development of ITA Airways in Spain, an important market for us. Our company, thanks to codeshare agreements with the main international airlines, advances our commercial strategy, which is aimed at providing our customers with an increasing number of destinations, routes and frequencies, especially in those markets that present large growth opportunities.”


As part of the new codeshare partnership, ITA Airways will place their ‘AZ’ code on flights operated by Air Europa between Italy and Spain. Likewise, Air Europa will place their marketing code on ITA Airways’ flights between Barcelona, Madrid and Rome.
