A New-Old Airline: The ITA Airways Fleet In 2022

Rising (or taking off) from the ashes of failed Italian airline Alitalia, ITA Airways is hoping to chart its own course and avoid the financial peril that its predecessor faced. Having begun operations in mid-October 2021, the airline was given a fairly fresh start - with all the challenges that come with it. Rebuilding its fleet and re-establishing routes has been no simple task, but its leadership is determined to craft an airline that Italians can be proud of. The competition is fierce and the post-pandemic operating environment has been full of challenges, but is the airline doing a good job so far? To answer that, let's take a look at the ITA Airways fleet in 2022.

I haven't yet had the chance to fly on an ITA plane, but I really dig the blue livery: looks very slick indeed, just as you'd expect from an Italian company :)

I really hope they succeed.
Italy needs an airline to look up to, not Ryanair.

I love the new blue Ita livery. The hottest looking A350s in the sky, for mine. Also love the old, iconic Alitalia A livery which has only had minor adjustments over 50 odd years. Big Douglas fleet back in the day with handful of jumbo & A300s. Many blue skies ahead for you, Ita.

Love the livery. I hope the cabin service and layout become as good as the paint job. I only flew Alitalia once from Heathrow to Rome on almost empty A321's in 2003. The cable was ok, but the crew seemed unhappy and indifferent. I hope ITA becomes an improvement over Alitalia.

When ITA started, I was very nostalgic about the Alitalia livery. But I have to admit that the new livery looks great and suits perfectly the A350 especially.
As for the cabin service, I flew MUC-BRI through FCO in December 21 and it was excellent.

On a side note, blue (azzurro) is the official color of any Italian national sports team (e.g. volleyball, basketball), not just football.

honestly, to me ita airways is a great company, i'm sorry that it has already had these accidents, but it's not just the company's fault, i hope that in the future it will take a big step, a bigger one than alitalia

That new blue is awesome. Nice video. Keep up the good work.

Ita Airways livery is probably one of the most beautiful in the air 💯💯 absolutely love it 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[cesarrarce]

They can paint their planes in any colour as long as the quality of service improves dramatically. That was Alitalia’s biggest problem; customer service. I wish them well and success on this re-launch

[MerkyAviation]

A lot of people seem to have a grudge on the blue livery because of how bold and outdated it is but honestly I think this 10x better than Alitalia’s revised livery. The revised livery is giving me Virgin Atlantic and SAS vibes and makes the 2005 livery shine out way more in my opinion.

I'm Italian and I think that ITA can be more successful than its predecessor, the colour scheme is dedicated to the colours of the Italian Football National Team and the aircrafts are dedicated to some football players and coaches such as Baggio and Lippi (but I Prefer the old Tri-Color Scheme)
On 6:15 I have to signal another incident: On May12 An A320 EI-DTG performing flight 1765 from Linate to Palermo experimented a Birdstrike and Fire on Engine 2 at 5000ft and return at Linate after 23min.

[cabottaxi]

Nice colour scheme this as opposed to the usual boring white

[Desmondlane]

It think the livery looks great, it makes me think of the Italian soccer teams jerseys.
The new a350 cabins look great. Their renewing their fleet with a330-900neos, a320neos, and a220

Finally after a long time get to one of your videos on this channel. Some of your videos previous to this were not available for viewing such as Thai airways fleet etc. Also as a request can you cover a video describing the massive refit emirates is doing to 120 of its aircraft.

[bennramnarine]

I like the new livery and believe that an All Airbus fleet is a good move. They should also look at Air Cargo services

[EpicThe]

Nice Livery and I wonder why they didn't take Allitalia A321-211s because those would have actually fitted nicely with the fleet.

[karlossargeant]
