ITA Airways and airBaltic announce codeshare agreement

ITA Airways and airBaltic have announced a codeshare partnership. The agreement will provide airBaltic customers with more convenient access to various destinations in Italy – and ITA Airways passengers can now purchase direct flights to Riga from Rome and Milan.

ITA Airways will apply its code AZ on flights operated by airBaltic between Italy and Latvia, offering passengers more connections. airBaltic, which introduced its mobile device ordering system airBaltic SKY Service last year, will expand its network by putting its BT designator code on selected ITA Airways-operated flights that cover 10 Italian cities in the current winter season, including Brindisi, Bari, Catania, Genoa, Palermo, Reggio Calabria, Lamezia Terme, Turin, Trieste and Venice.

Thanks to this agreement, ITA Airways and airBaltic customers can fly seamlessly to their chosen destinations with a single ticket.

AirBaltic CEO Martin Gauss said: “We are pleased to add ITA Airways as another partner to our existing network of codeshare airlines. Our strong network of partners enables us to further improve the connectivity of Baltic states. The new partnership provides convenient connections to existing destinations in Italy.”
