The launch of the Rome–Tripoli route was made possible with essential backing from the Italian Prime Minister’s Office, in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Transport, and the civil aviation authorities from both Italy and Libya. Andrea Benassi, General Manager of ITA Airways, highlighted that the airline “has worked closely with the government and ENAC” to establish this route. Benassi noted that the new flights will not only enhance trade but also “support the many Italian businesses operating in the North African country.”
With Tripoli, ITA Airways now serves 55 destinations in its winter season. Tickets for the Rome–Tripoli route are available through the airline’s official sales channels, including its website, customer service centers, travel agencies, and airport ticket counters.
