Flights, the Alghero-Rome route loses 12 frequencies a week: anger and protests

12 frequencies per week canceled on the Alghero-Rome service served by Aeroitalia, for the entire month of August. Mid-morning flights (Tuesday, Thursday and Friday) and afternoon flights (Monday, Wednesday and Saturday) have been cut. «An unplanned decision that creates great inconvenience for resident and tourist users», comments mayor Raimondo Cacciotto, urging intervention by the regional transport department.

It was the municipal councilor of Città Viva, Giampietro Moro, who was the first to report the "disappearance" of some routes to Fiumicino in the month of August, "for passengers who had already booked and bought the ticket".

Even Michele Pais, coordinator of the League and opposition councilor, predicts a total disaster. «Aeroitalia cancels 12 routes a week between Alghero and Rome and the concern is that the cancellation could also extend to Milan», warns Pais. «Precisely in the month of August, with the greatest influx, this is alarming news which once again undermines the right to mobility of Sardinians and risks compromising the summer season, as well as creating significant damage, once again, to the operation of the airport of Alghero, bringing up the rear of the Sardinian ports", concludes Michele Pais.
