Alitalia expands in Florence

SkyTeam member, Alitalia will expand its scheduled service from Florence in Summer 2011 with two new routes. It currently only operates Florence from its Rome (FCO) hub, but will add routes to Catania and Amsterdam from March 27th. Catania will be operated on a five-times weekly basis, a route currently served on a daily basis by Meridiana. Amsterdam will be served twice-daily with A319 equipment, a route also served by Meridiana, eleven-times weekly.
