Poste Italiane flagged as Alitalia vehicle
Italy’s state-owned mail group Poste Italiane is again being flagged as a possible vehicle to rescue the ailing Alitalia, this time as part of a consortium.
Poste Italiane relies on 16 daily flights, some operated by Alitalia, to transport its mail and Italian media have already carried stories indicating it might be interested in the airline’s cargo business. Poste already operates its own cargo carrier, Mistral Air.
Poste’s CEO Massimo Sarmi cautioned that he has not yet been approached to join the proposed group.
He stressed that any decision to pick up pieces of the cargo business or to be part of a consortium would be based on business considerations.
