NEOS has scheduled a new point-to-point service between Italy and the United States with the launch of its nonstop flights between Bari and New York, providing the only transatlantic service from Palese Macchie Airport.
In the summer season of 2024, the leisure airline had inaugurated a route between Palermo and the Big Apple, becoming the first airline to connect Sicily with North America.
The new nonstop route will connect Bari’s Palese Macchie Airport with New York-JFK and will begin on October 15, 2025, with a weekly frequency operated by Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, which have a capacity of 359 seats in two classes: 28 Premium Economy and 331 Economy.
The aircraft will depart from New York-JFK every Tuesday at 16:00 (local time) and land in Bari at 08:00 the next day. On the return leg, it will depart from Palese Macchie Airport every Wednesday at 08:00, arriving in the Big Apple at 13:50.
«After the flight connecting Sicily with the United States, we are further expanding our connections with New York, serving another important Italian region. Thanks to this new flight, we will have a daily offer from New York to Italy with four weekly frequencies from Milan, two from Palermo, and one from Bari, significantly contributing to the development of leisure and business flows between the two countries,» said Carlo Stradiotti, CEO of Neos.
