\nAlitalia joins in joint venture<\/strong>\n<\/div>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nItaly’s flagship carrier Alitalia has united with Air France-KLM and Delta Airlines in their trans-Atlantic joint venture that will result in an increase of flights between main cities in the U.S. and Europe, the airlines announced Monday.\n<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nThe joint venture was launched in April 2009 and created a coordinated network for customers traveling across the Atlantic, allowing the member airlines to share revenues and costs.\n<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nWith Alitalia’s addition, the project represents about 26% of the entire trans-Atlantic capacity, with annual revenues estimated at about $10 billion, according to Delta.\n<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nThe affiliate airlines will provide close to 250 daily trans-Atlantic flights, including 20 flights daily from Rome and Milan to five cities in the U.S.\n<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nRome joins Amsterdam, Atlanta, Detroit, Minneapolis, New York JFK and Paris Charles de Gaulle as the cores of the joint venture.\n<\/p>\n
