#3> Alitalia was drowning in debt for years before the pandemic, but Francavilla said that the future is bright for ITA, calling the airline "right-sized" both in terms of fleet, staffing and routing.
It’s a mature industry undergoing massive change - isn’t this just a rebranding of a restructuring?

#6This seems like it's just a re-branding and downsizing exercise.
Which isn't a bad idea. An old joke is that Alitalia = "Always Late In Takeoff, Always Late In Arrival".

Yes.
IAC Aircraft Painting has done one aircraft paint job for ITA, but most of the fleet will bear the old Alitalia logo for a while.[1]
Big layoffs. Alitalia had around 10,000 employees; ITA will start with about 2,800.
