ITA Airways fares and cabin baggage: what to know
ITA Airways sells its tickets as fare families. According to third-party sources, the range looks like this:
Economy Light: cabin bag included, no checked bag, paid seat selection.
Economy Classic: adds 1 checked bag of 23 kg.
Economy Flex: adds a free seat, free changes and refunds.
Business Classic and Business Flex: 2 checked bags of 32 kg.
Note: these fares date from before or around the switch to Star Alliance, and they may have changed with the Lufthansa integration. The exact content of your ticket is shown before payment, and that is what counts.
A useful rule: with a suitcase, compare Economy Light plus a paid bag with Economy Classic. The gap tells you which ticket is really cheaper.
ITA Airways cabin baggage: the weight to remember
The ITA Airways cabin bag can weigh up to 8 kg, according to press reports and travel guides. Sources disagree on the exact dimensions, so check them when you book, especially if your cabin case is on the large side.
ITA Airways at a glance: Alitalia's successor
The name is an acronym: Italia Trasporto Aereo, hence ITA. The airline was founded on 11 November 2020. Its first flight took off on 15 October 2021, the day after Alitalia stopped flying. ITA Airways succeeds Alitalia, but it is a new company, not a renamed one.
Rome, Milan and Lufthansa
HQ and hub: Rome, with Rome-Fiumicino as its hub. Milan-Linate is its other key base.
Shareholders: Lufthansa has held 41% since 17 January 2025. On 12 May 2026 it exercised its option to rise to 90% (€325 million for 49% more), with the Italian Ministry of Economy keeping 10%. Lufthansa is set to become the majority shareholder: closing is expected in Q1 2027, subject to EU and US approval.
Alliance: ITA left SkyTeam in 2025 and joined Star Alliance on 1 April 2026.
Loyalty: Miles & More since 1 April 2026. The Volare programme ended on 31 March 2026.
Fleet: Airbus only, from the A220 to the A350-900.
From France: ITA Airways routes and smart combinations
ITA Airways flies from Paris-CDG and Paris-Orly to Milan-Linate, and from Nice to Rome-Fiumicino, among others. Marseille is linked to Rome in season. The most searched trips:
Paris → Milan (Linate), the classic
Nice → Rome and Marseille → Rome (seasonal)
Paris → Naples, Paris → Catania, Paris → Palermo: with a connection, not nonstop
On Paris → Rome, check in the results whether the flight is nonstop or connecting. The airline also serves Brussels, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Munich, Barcelona and Madrid.
Plane + train, the Italian combo
Italy's rail network pairs well with flying. On Rome → Milan, the train is often faster than the plane city centre to city centre: compare Frecciarossa trains from Trenitalia with Italo. Another combo: a Paris → Milan flight, then a train on to Florence or Rome, booked in one place. Flying on to Spain or Portugal? Compare Air Europa and TAP Air Portugal too.
Popular flights: Paris → Rome.
