The additional services are intended to accommodate increased demand for travel during the holiday season, when many people travel to visit family or take year-end trips.
Gaetano Intrieri, Aeroitalia’s chief executive, said the flights would expand the airline’s presence in Sardinia and provide additional travel options during a period of particularly high demand.
Silvio Pippobello, chief executive of the companies managing the Alghero and Olbia airports, welcomed the initiative, saying the new connections would help meet seasonal travel needs and serve visitors arriving for New Year’s celebrations. He said the initiative could also pave the way for extending the routes into the wider winter season.
