Lollo, I can't say I'd be happy to see Volare become Italy's main carrier, in case of an Alitalia demise...unless of course they get their act together and stop changing/cutting routes all the time, as well as improve their on-time performance. Besides, they are a LCC... I'd rather see Meridiana take over.
I do hope Alitalia will survive this crisis, as much as I would like to see it go under and re-emerge a healthier airline (like SN Brussels did), cleaned of all the filth that infests it, but they are an icon that Italy needs to keep alive. Unfortunately Italians have the habit of destroying the best things we have (with very few exceptions)...
Anyhow, enough of the ranting!

I am fully aware that Air Dolomiti is 100% owned by LH now, but as I said, this is an ideal scenario, and they would still be 100% Italian (why they decided to give themselves to LH is beyond me, but at least they got to keep their identity, unlike the rest of the Lufthansa Regional airlines)

Lastly, I really don't mind Livingston's colors, they are a rather hip company overall, and they ARE a holiday airline after all

p.s. posso provarci, ma prima dovrò disegnarmi dei profili per quegli aerei
