ITA Airways’ Flights for the 2024 Summer Season on Sale

ITA Airways recently announced that new destination flights for the summer 2024 season are officially on sale.

According to a company announcement, 2024 will be a year of continued expansion for ITA Airways on the long haul, one of the main pillars of the airline’s strategy, as it not only generates profitability but also increases the short haul, helping to double the capacity of the intercontinental network.

ITA Airways will inaugurate nonstop flights from North America, Africa, and the Middle East to its Rome Fiumicino hub. More specifically, the airline’s new direct flights for this summer from Rome will be to Chicago, Toronto, Riyadh, Accra, Kuwait City and Jeddah.

The operating schedule of the new flights is the following:

• 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.
• Riyad – 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.

The new intercontinental routes from Chicago and Toronto will be operated with the Airbus A330neo and Airbus A330-200. 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.

The new flights from Riyad, Accra, Kuwait City and Jeddah will be operated with the Airbus A321neo.

Moreover, 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.

For the Middle East, a strategic market for ITA Airways, the company is investing on three different routes: the first one, between Riyadh and Rome Fiumicino, serves business travel traffic; the second one from Jeddah to Rome, is strategic for both leisure and religious traffic flows; and the last one from Kuwait City to Rome serves corporate traffic.

All the airline’s new flights will allow passengers from foreign destinations to fly on the company’s entire network, thanks to the convenient connections available from the Rome Fiumicino hub.

The new flights are available for purchase on all ITA Airways channels, through the official itaairways.com website, the company’s contact center, travel agencies and airport ticket offices.
