Everyone is talking Italian at London City Airport this week where British Airways is celebrating the launch of new flights to the capital city of Rome.
The year-round service is the fourth Italian city to be served by British Airways direct from the Docklands and will operate every day except Saturday.
A special bust of one of Rome’s most famous forefathers, Julius Caesar, was drafted in to greet customers on the first flight.
The bust was welcomed on board the Embraer 190 jet by British Airways’ inflight business manager and fellow Italian Marco Tagliaferri, one of 15 Italian cabin crew and flight crew who work on board flights to and from London City.
