(ANSA) - MILAN, MARCH 06 - Lufthansa is "a better partner than Air France for Italy, but it will limit itself to taking passengers to Munich and Frankfurt, as it has already done in Brussels and Zurich with Sabena and Swissair".
I'm happy for us - he adds - because it will raise the fares for Ita's flights and so people will fly more with us". It's not true - explains the manager - that young people prefer the train to the plane.
The train makes sense for journeys of up to two hours, then you need the plane", he explains. "Who wants to go from Milan to Rome - he concludes - takes the train but who wants to go to Sicily or Sardinia, what does he do?
He must necessarily fly with us and we will take him to his destination". (ANSA).
