They will be replaced by a new national airline ITA And therein lies the problem - "national airline" and politicians don't go well together and are usually a disaster for profitability, business acumen, and observance of EU competition rules.

Amongst all the humorous alternate titles for airlines of years ago (BOAC - Better On A Camel), TWA (Try Walking Across) SABENA (Such A Bl**dy Experience Never Again) SAHSA Honduras (Stay At Home Stay Alive), Alitalia was known in the business as 'All Little Italians Trying And Losing In Aviation'. It seems like they finally lost. I only ever flew with them a few times, but they were totally forgettable experiences.
