ITA Airways moving at ‘full throttle’ to join Star Alliance

Italy’s national carrier has received formal approval to integrate into the Star Alliance. On Wednesday, ITA Airways said onboarding “will now move at full throttle” after completing administrative procedures. It represents the latest chapter in a process that is expected to conclude in early 2026. The Star Alliance is a group of 25 global airlines that partner to provide easier connections and cross-company recognition for frequent flyers. Its best-known members include United, Turkish Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Air India, and Lufthansa. Although largely ceremonial, Wednesday’s developments continue a busy start to the year for ITA. <br/>
