Here we are, according to our favorite forum...

"German aviation conglomerate Lufthansa Group will take a 41% stake in Alitalia’s successor, ITA Airways"
"Under the new agreement with Lufthansa Group, ITA Airways will become the fifth network carrier of the German company."
"The German company also notes that “ITA can benefit from synergies of the Group, such as access to the partner network, central revenue management and the use of Lufthansa Group’s global sales and marketing channels.”
"It is unclear if this means ITA will leave the SkyTeam alliancefor Star Alliance or adopt Lufthansa’s Miles & More loyalty program."
