Alitalia and Royal Jordanian have signed a codeshare agreement to offer more choice and enhanced network connectivity between Italy, Jordan, and beyond.
The new agreement will allow Alitalia to widen its middle-east network by placing its “AZ” flight code on Royal Jordanian five-weekly flights between Rome and Amman and beyond to Aqaba and Larnaca, Cyprus.
Similarly, Royal Jordanian will expand its offer to Italy by placing its “RJ” flight code on Alitalia’s daily Amman-Rome service, which will resume on 26 March 2017, and on the Italian airline’s connections from Rome to the following 16 domestic destinations: Ancona, Brindisi, Bologna, Bari, Catania, Florence, Genoa, Naples, Palermo, Pisa, Reggio Calabria, Lamezia Terme, Turin, Trieste, Verona and Venice.
The codeshare agreement is bound to boost travel and tourism between Jordan and Italy, giving tourists, businessmen and students more travel options with 12 weekly flights between Rome and Amman. Furthermore, travellers from Italy and Jordan will also benefit from a wider range of new destinations to fly to with a single ticket, such as Aqaba for Alitalia’s travellers or Florence, Venice, Naples and Turin for those flying with Royal Jordanian.
