(My Dad tells me that they're trying to build Milan as another hub but I don't know where he read this. He says it's because slots and landing/parking costs are lower in Milan, which sort of makes sense I suppose, but again, I don't have numbers.)
I think they are just trying to open up new markets ex India which haven't been over loaded with the likes of LH/BA and AI.

Whether it does well?
