That's why they are loosing even on such route, especially vs Emirates.
After 20 years flying with AZ (but now definitely switched to AF and LH), I'm guessing if they have definitely lost their head.
That's why they are losing to Emirates that does not offer a PE product?

This seems a bit confused.

They are losing to Emirates because Emirates offers outlandishly low prices for well known reasons. And also because MXP and the Italian government had the idiotic idea of allowing a 5th freedom flight on a crowded route.

I wouldn't worry about the head of AZ on this specific subject.
