==>"Italian national carrier Alitalia announced Tuesday Aug. 24 that it would stop issuing tickets and will effectively shut down operations as it prepares to dissolve and be replaced by a new airline.
The new carrier, Italia Transporto Aereo (ITA), plans to begin operations on Oct. 15, 2021, according to the airline. Alitalia will consequently stop selling tickets for flights on or after that date, and will allow passengers with tickets for later to reschedule or request a refund."<==
