The Lufthansa Group is driving forward the integration of ITA Airways and will enable its customers to combine Lufthansa, SWISS, Austrian Airlines, and Brussels Airlines flights with ITA Airways long-haul flights in a single booking starting July 1, 2025. This represents an important step in the planned complete integration of the Italian airline.
Through the mutual codeshare offers, travelers benefit from significantly improved connecting connections and continuous baggage transport to their destination. For example, it is possible to travel with Lufthansa from Frankfurt and Munich via Rome with ITA Airways to Bangkok, Jeddah, or Riyadh, or with Brussels Airlines from Brussels to Cairo. Codeshare flights from Vienna via Rome to Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo are also available with Lufthansa and Austrian Airlines. Further codeshare connections to Africa and Asia are to follow in the coming weeks.
Dieter Vranckx, Chief Commercial Officer of the Lufthansa Group, expressed his delight at this milestone. He emphasized that the expansion of codeshare flights will offer guests a seamless and consistent travel experience with an expanded and coordinated route network. Customers can continue to collect and redeem miles and points in the respective frequent flyer programs Miles & More or Volare. Since March, travelers on ITA Airways and the other Lufthansa Group network airlines have been able to book over 100 new codeshare flights for selected domestic Italian and European connections. Once the codeshare program is fully implemented, ITA Airways passengers will have access to over 250 Lufthansa Group codeshare destinations.
