‘Operated by Hibernian Airlines’??
Hi all,
ITA recently notified me to let me know that my LIN-BDS and BDS-LIN sectors in May are to be operated by Hibernian Airlines. I know they’re fairly new and operate CRJ 1000s but does anyone have any experience or insight into the onboard service? Ticket is booked in Business so I’m wondering how this will change the experience.
Thanks!

Just a glass of water and a salty or sweet snack.
Nothing remarkable in terms of brand image for ITA (and this partially explains why ITA has a market share slightly above 10% in 2022, behind FR, EJ and W6)
They are nevertheless efficient and operations go smooth. Only annoying note for someone: they often require to check in the hand-baggage at gates even when the plane is empty.

That your attention was even drawn to the fact that the flight is operated by another operator is presumably to satisfy a regulatory requirement.
