ITA Airways announces the extension of code-share flights on an initial set of intercontinental destinations with Lufthansa Group carriers, for travels starting from July 1, 2025. This new agreement covers flights departing from Europe to Africa, Asia, and South America, further reinforcing the collaboration between ITA Airways and the Lufthansa Group to enhance connectivity and passenger experience. 

Thanks to the new intercontinental code-share agreements, the Italian carrier will offer customers an even broader network and increasingly efficient, seamless connections between Italy and key destinations worldwide. With a single ticket, passengers will be able to reach their final intercontinental destination in an easier, smoother and safer way. 

With this new agreement, its AZ code will be applied to flights operated by the Lufthansa Group to several African destinations via its hub in Brussels, including Nairobi, Abidjan, Douala, Freetown, Monrovia, and Ouagadougou. 

At the same time, Lufthansa Group customers will benefit from seamless travel with a single ticket to reach intercontinental destinations within ITA Airways’ network, such as Bangkok, Jeddah, Riyadh, Cairo, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo. 

Following the launch of the first intercontinental code-shares, ITA Airways and the Lufthansa Group will continue working together to expand global connectivity and enhance travel options for passengers. In the next months, the network will be further extended with the addition of new code-share flights on long-haul routes.
