Direct Flights Between Libya and Italy Resume After 10-Year Suspension
Direct flights between Libya and Italy have officially resumed after a decade-long hiatus, marking a significant milestone in bilateral relations. This development was announced by a Libyan news agency following the first flight's successful landing on Sunday.
The inaugural direct flight by an Italian airline touched down at Mitiga Airport in Tripoli, arriving from Fiumicino Airport in Rome. This makes the airline the first major Western carrier to reestablish air services with Libya since flights were suspended due to the country's political instability over the past ten years. The airline plans to operate two weekly flights between Rome and Tripoli.
Libya's Minister of Transport, Mohamed Salem al-Chahoubi, expressed the country's willingness to grant additional operating licenses to the Italian airline. This move aims to expand air connectivity between Libya and other destinations across the European Union, fostering greater cooperation and travel opportunities.
The resumption of direct flights aligns with the broader agreements signed between Libya and Italy in late October, focusing on enhancing cooperation in various sectors, including infrastructure development. This step highlights the growing commitment of both nations to strengthen their partnership and facilitate mobility.
