It is absolutley nonsense that this airline should be allowed continue. The federal state of Europe needs to intervene and show the red card like it has done in the past. Why is Italy any different. If not other states should ban Alitalia from flying to them. And why you may ask, because it is unfair competition. If an Alitalia seat is 1c cheaper on the same route than an airline playing fair in the market place and the customer chooses Alitalia that airline has been 'robbed', because they are competing with a state subsidised airline who do not have to worry about costs. I say close em down now and let the market work freely.
