ITA Airways has announced new destination flights for the summer season of 2024.
The next 12 months will be a year of continued expansion for ITA Airways on the long haul, one of the main pillars of the airline’s strategy.
ITA Airways will inaugurate nonstop flights from North America, Africa, and the Middle East to its Rome
Fiumicino hub.
Below is the operating schedule of the new flights:
• Chicago – Rome Fiumicino operating from 7 April 2024, with 6 weekly frequencies that will become
7 from June.
• Toronto – Rome Fiumicino from 10 May 2024, with 6 weekly frequencies becoming 7 from June to
September and 5 in October.
• Riyadh – Rome Fiumicino from 6 May 2024 with 4 weekly frequencies, rising to 5 from June.
• Accra – Rome Fiumicino from 7 June 2024 with 3 weekly frequencies becoming 4 from July.
• Kuwait City – Rome Fiumicino from 8 June 2024 with 3 weekly frequencies that will become 5 from
July.
• Jeddah – Rome Fiumicino from August 2024 with 3 weekly frequencies.
The new intercontinental routes from Chicago and Toronto will be operated with the Airbus A330neo and
Airbus A330-200 and add to the connections from New York, Boston, Miami, Los Angeles, San Francisco,
Washington, Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Buenos Aires, Tokyo, New Delhi, and Malè (Maldives) to Rome
Fiumicino, already in the company’s network.
The new flights from Riyadh, Accra, Kuwait City and Jeddah will be operated with the Airbus A321neo.
The opening of the new Toronto – Rome route represents for ITA Airways a major product, which enhances
the connections offered from North America, the first market after Italy.
In addition, its launch will allow the airline not only to add a strategic entry for point-to-point traffic but also to reach other destinations within both countries, thus combining leisure and business travel flows.
The new Accra – Rome route is ITA Airways’ only direct flight from Ghana to Italy and marks a first step for
the company in establishing connections between West Africa and Italy, a key destination for both leisure
and corporate traffic flows.
Also, the Middle East represents a strategic market for ITA Airways. Here the Company has decided to invest
on three important, different routes: the first one, between Riyadh and Rome Fiumicino, serves business travel
traffic, while the second one from Jeddah to Rome, is strategic for both leisure and religious traffic flows, the
last one from Kuwait City to Rome serves corporate traffic.
