What is not said about Ita Airways

Questions and answers on Ita Airways. The letter from Carlo Furiga, national secretary of Assovolo Trasporto Aereo

Dear director,

but is there really still anyone who has the audacity to define Ita as a start-up?

On 14 October 2021 the Mef company could at most open a stationery bookshop, having few employees, reams of paper and zero aeronautical skills. The next day, October 15, 2021, it was operating in full operation as an airline. This occurred on the basis of the aviation branch transfer contract, signed on 10/14/2021.

In the attached pages we discover that, although he declared the hiring from the market, 100% of the workers employed to operate the flights come from Alitalia.

We also discover that Alitalia was required to keep the branch in full working order for the passage after midnight, without even a symbolic operational stop.

If this were not enough, I highlight that various sentences, even unfavorable to the workers, sanction what happened as a transfer of a company branch.

If it had been a matter of the sale of assets and assets to a start-up, on the one hand Ita would be forced to return the very precious slots, on the other hand it would be in contrast with what was previously requested by the European DG Competition, that the sale take place at a price market; one euro seems a bit small and certainly some light will be shed, in the appropriate places, on how this was possible.

Well, as explained by the expert, that single euro is justified in the case of transfer of a business branch since, given the "income prospects", it brings with it the liabilities.

And here I'll give you a scoop: if it was a transfer of a business branch, upon reading the aforementioned transfer contract, the notary was "exempted" from reading it and only detailed the "sub-indicated signatories"; and the contract is not registered in the business register at the Chamber of Commerce, like the other three branches, two handling and maintenance.

Finally, regarding the dismissals of workers who did not show up for a medical examination, I would like to point out that it was a "political dismissal" by yet another dead man walking , who has nothing to lose by causing further damage to ITA itself. Suffice it to point out that among them, on the date of the call, there were part-time workers, sick and hospitalized!

So who are the “cripplers”?

The fault undoubtedly lies with the person who endorsed a series of illegal paths, in the role of holder of the selling ministry before, and immediately after, the purchasing ministry. And of all those trade unionists, former Alitalia, who allowed this slaughter for four crumbs, as highlighted by the Sole 24 Ore (Gianni Dragoni) on 12/23/2021, an article for which no denial or complaint has been received.

Kind regards and happy new year,

Carlo Furiga
