relaunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2022\/02\/lufthansa-50-additional-flights-at-easter.html\">Lufthansa offers more than 50 additional flights from Frankfurt and Munich at Easter.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lufthansa has teamed up with shipping group MSC to express an interest in ITA and could soon be given access to its books after the Italian government detailed ways to sell the slimmed down airline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MSC has said it would take a majority stake in ITA, with Lufthansa as a junior partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Asked whether Lufthansa wanted a majority stake in ITA, CEO Carsten Spohr said that was \u201cfar away\u201d from its intentions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a

in Italy, no worry,\u201d said Spohr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI hear my shareholders &#8211; don\u2019t worry we know there is a legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chief executive met MSC\u2019s Italian
