At the same time, the agreement strengthens Volotea\u2019s commercial visibility in new European markets and allows ITA Airways to expand its offering by including destinations served by the low-cost carrier\u2019s network. These include cities such as Asturias, Bilbao, Bordeaux, Lourdes\/Tarbes, Nantes, and Strasbourg, with additional connection opportunities via Spain.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cWe are very pleased to strengthen our collaboration with ITA Airways through the launch of this codeshare agreement,\u201d said Carlos Mu\u00f1oz, founder and CEO of Volotea<\/strong>. \u201cFollowing the path initiated with the interline agreement signed last year, and the joint offer submitted to participate in the public tenders for territorial continuity in Sardinia, this partnership represents the natural evolution of a process that enables us to offer our passengers an even greater number of destinations and travel combinations, while maintaining convenience, accessibility, and service quality at the core.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cWith the codeshare agreement with Volotea, a highly reliable partner, we are further expanding travel opportunities for our customers, improving connectivity to and from Rome Fiumicino, and making it easier to reach numerous destinations in Italy and Europe with a single ticket.
