ALI - Avio Linee Italiane

Italy

*

ALI - Avio Linee Italiane was founded in 1926. A service to Munich started in 1928, extended to Berlin three years later. It was the only Italian airline to survive the creation of Italy's national airline Ala Littoria in 1934. In addition to domestic routes centred on Milan, Paris and London were also on the route map before the outbreak of WWII, when operations were halted.

ALI was rejuvenated in 1947, again starting domestic services. In 1949, the airline merged with three smaller airlines to become ALI-Flotte Riunite. They were SISA - Società Italiana Servizi Aerei, Transadriatica (both post-war airlines using names of predecessors of Ala Littoria) and Airone. ALI-FR went out of business in 1952.
