Italy and United Arab Emirates signed an agreement yesterday that will allow Emirates and Etihad Airways to have significant access to Italian airports, with EK planning to use Milan Malpensa, Rome Fiumicino and Venice as gateway "hubs" to Europe. Italian Secretary of State for Economic Development and Foreign Trade Adolfo Urso, who traveled to Abu Dhabi to sign the accord, said the re-launched Alitalia would provide connections for EK passengers. "Emirates would be able to count on the help of our new Italian airline," he said. EK will operate 21 weekly flights to both MXP and FCO and 14 to VCE. It also will operate 28 weekly cargo flights collectively to the Italian cities. Etihad plans to operate seven weekly flights each to MXP and FCO. "Thanks to this agreement, Italy will more easily become a tourist destination for the newly rich from the Gulf and from southeast Asia," Urso claimed

Tra l'altro anche qui si parla di hubs in maniera impropria..
