Alitalia CityLiner was founded as
Air One CityLiner S.p.A. in June 2006, as a subsidiary of
Air One, with a brand new fleet of ten
Bombardier CRJ-900s. It commenced operations with flights between
Trieste and Rome Fiumicino; and
Genoa and
Naples, on 7 June. In February 2007, it started its first international route, between
Turin and
Paris-Charles de Gaulle. On 13 January 2009, Air One and Alitalia merged under the Alitalia brand name, therefore Air One CityLiner S.p.A. was reincorporated as Alitalia CityLiner S.p.A. On 20 April 2011, the airline was rebranded
Alitalia CityLiner. It became Alitalia's only regional airline, a role previously performed by
Alitalia Express. Anew fleet of 20 Embraer 175s and 190s was delivered between September 2011 and March 2013. In August 2019, the airline's parent company and CityLiner itself were placed under Extraordinary Administration (EA), this due to years of inprofitability. Since 2020 Alitalia was fully owned by the
Italian government. Both Alitalia and Alitalia CityLiner ceased operations at the same time on 15 October 2021 when they were replaced by
ITA Airways.
Alliances As Alitalia was part of
SkyTeam Alliance from 2009 to 2021, Alitalia CityLiner had been a member-affiliate of the alliance. == Fleet ==
