Alitalia halves its first-quarter
losses to 117 million euros from 228 million in the first
quarter of 2017, the troubled Italian airline's three
extraordinary commissioners said Thursday.
One of the three, Luigi Gubitosi, told a special Alitalia
commission that whatever the new government's choice on a buyer,
it should be "done quickly".
Lufthansa and EasyJet/Cerberus are two of the frontrunners in
the contest to buy Alitalia.
All potential buyers have said it must be radically
restructured.
Gubitosi added that among the 2018 targets were a 9% increase
in hours flown.
