Alitalia investors Poste Italiane
and Unicredit bank said Tuesday they approve terms of a deal for
Abu Dhabi-based Etihad Airways to acquire a 49% stake in the
Italian flag carrier. The board of directors of the State-owned
postal operator said it "agrees with the industrial plan" for
Alitalia. "I believe Poste has said it is on board," Transport
Minister Maurizio Lupi commented. "Everything asked of us has
been negotiated and is on the table. Our part is done,"
commented Unicredit CEO Federico Ghizzoni.
