Rumors Plant Air Berlin Fusion mit Alitalia?

ZU-ZU 2014 Oneworld . . Air Berlin und Alitalia zusammen
report by Abu Dhabi (UAE) - based Etihad Airways

German weekly WirtschaftsWoche reported yesterday.

Banking and industry sources said Etihad was looking into ways to combine Air Berlin and Alitalia to generate synergies and to preserve Air Berlin's international traffic rights.

These discussions are at an early stage and any deal would likely face challenges from Rome and Italy's organised labour, who have already fought several attempts to end the independence of the country's loss-making flagship carrier.

A tie-up, be it a commercial accord or a full merger, would also probably force Air Berlin to leave the Oneworld alliance of airlines and to join SkyTeam - of which Alitalia is a member.

Citing company sources, the magazine said a group of German shareholders, among them former and current company executives, would raise their stakes to hold more than 50pc between them, preserving the carrier’s German status.
Turkey’s Sabanci family would also exit, it added.

The family’s investment vehicle ESAS owns 12pc of the carrier, according to Air Berlin’s website.
