Because Enac has suspended the license to Air Italy
Air Italy, from 25 August, cannot sell tickets, transport passengers or goods. All the details on the decision of the National Civil Aviation Authority (ENAC)
Air Italy will no longer be able to sell tickets, transport people or goods. The National Civil Aviation Authority (ENAC) has suspended the airline's air transport license.
All the details.
STOP LICENSE
Enac has suspended Air Italy's Coa (Aeronautical Operator Certificate) license: from 25 August, the airline cannot sell tickets, transport passengers or goods, according to what is learned from the ENAC bulletin.
The Camo certificate still remains active, authorizing the management of the activity that guarantees the navigability of the machines.
THE COMMENT OF ENAC
On the Air Italy front, "the conditions for maintaining the license no longer exist, also following the suspension of the Coa requested by the carrier that had returned the aircraft to the lessors (leasing companies, ed.)", Enac commented to the Corriere .
COMPANY IN LIQUIDATION
The stop on the license is not surprising. The airline, controlled by Alisarda and Qatar Airways, in fact, has been in liquidation performing since 11 February.
AIR ITALY WITHOUT AIRCRAFT
And since that date, the company has returned the leased Boeing 737s and Airbus A330s and is left with no owned aircraft.
THE INTEGRATION CASH IS STUDYED
What fate for the workers? Negotiations are currently underway. In fact, a meeting was held in recent days between the company in the aeronautical sector and the nine trade unions that protect the rights of Air Italy employees, to talk about the layoffs for 1,453 workers for another 10 months.
The company, which in recent months had also started the practices for a collective dismissal, has no intention of anticipating the redundancy payment.
Distrust of workers
The suspension of the aircraft operator certificate complicates matters. Although not all staff are involved. A portion of the employees will continue to operate within the activities permitted by Camo.
THE COMMENT OF THE FILT CGIL
“It doesn't surprise me but I didn't expect these times”, comments the general secretary of Filt Cgil, Arnaldo Boeddu. “All that remains is to wait for the next meeting with the company, the institutions and, as requested several times, also with the Lombardy and Sardinia Regions”.
"I hope that in the meantime Alitalia will continue to operate in Sardinia in territorial continuity, guaranteeing the mobility of citizens and nurturing the hope of the one thousand and 453 workers of AirItaly", adds Boeddu, who argues that: "the suspension of the license does not help the negotiation on layoffs, but we remain focused on the agreement for ten months of layoffs without any restrictions on the lack of notice in the event of dismissal, as requested by top management ".
