Aeroitalia SRL is an Italian airline.[2] [3] It operates a fleet of Boeing 737s and ATR 72s from operating bases in Bergamo, Comiso and Rome–Fiumicino.

History

The airline was launched in 2022, by an ex-consultant of Italy's Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, Francesco Gaetano Intrieri, who is Aeroitalia's CEO. AeroItalia's backers include Germán Efromovich, the airline's president and previous owner of Avianca, and a French banker named Marc Bourgade.[4] [5]

On 9 July 2022, it started operating scheduled flights from Forlì to domestic destinations as well as Malta and Zakynthos. The airline planned to operate long-haul flights to the United States and Latin America by 2023,[6] but has since stalled the plan in order to consolidate its domestic and European operations.

It announced an increase of flights to Sicily in 2023 including additional flights to Trapani, Palermo, and Catania with the support of the Sicilian government.[7]

On 6 November 2023, it was announced the airline had acquired a 93.86% stake in AirConnect, a Romanian regional airline.[8] In July 2024 the airline announced the opening of a new base in Bacau, Romania.
