Aeroitalia’s inaugural flight from F.A. Forlì airport took off for Brindisi on Saturday 9 July, the first of the scheduled services operated by the new independent Italian airline.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony
At a brief ceremony in Forlì’s air terminal shortly before the departure of the flight Giuseppe Silvestrini, president of F.A. Forlì Airport, and German Efromovich, non-executive President of Aeroitalia, cut the tricolour ribbon.
"Finally we are flying with a company that will allow us to reaffirm the concept of Forlì Airport as the airport of the Romagna region," commented Giuseppe Silvestrini adding that it is an honour to have Aeroitalia by their side
“Today a new era has begun in the world of aviation”
"This is an historic moment - said German Efromovich, - not only because it is Aeroitalia’s first flight, but because of the relationship that has been created with the management of F.A. Forlì Airport, which has always believed in our project. Today a new era has begun in the world of aviation, and we are proud of it.”

Two other Aeroitalia flights were inaugurated last Saturday, one to Catania and one to Lamezia Terme . On Sunday fights started to Olbia and Naples, and from today flights from Forlì will gradually be introduced to Malta, Zante, Lampedusa and Alghero.
