SkyTeamSkyTeam and Trenitalia, Italy’s leading rail operator and part of FS Group, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to offer customers a wider choice of destinations across Italy. Announced today at the World Aviation Festival in Amsterdam, the partnership will enable customers to explore Italy using high-speed Frecciarossa train services – Trenitalia’s high-speed network in Italy – facilitating intermodal travel across the country by combining air and rail itineraries in a single reservation.
With Trenitalia as part of SkyTeam’s global network, customers will be able to book a journey that connects air and rail segments. For example, customers will be able to fly from New York-JFK to Rome Fiumicino, collect their bags and continue their journey by Frecciarossa train.
“We are delighted to join forces with Trenitalia as our second non-airline partner, strengthening SkyTeam’s intermodal travel strategy by offering more high-quality, high-speed rail connections – supporting our mission to future-proof travel. Italy is an important global market for business and leisure travelers and with Trenitalia customers will have more choice and flexibility to go where they want to, how they want to, while enjoying the many benefits for which SkyTeam is known.” Patrick Roux, CEO, SkyTeam
