Washington-Geneva

Economy

No reason given

They sent me an email 2 hours ago to tell me that my flight was concealed without any explanation. This is the second time on the same airplane. I never had any explanation. I had to stay one more night in DC, because I couldn’t take an hotel I had to stay in the airport an entire day and I had to change my train ticket from Geneva to Lyon this was 40 more dollars.

Chicago-Rome

Economy

- September 7th, 2024: We had originally chosen our seats with additional legroom around 4.02.2024 once we received flight information from Glimmer. We paid an additional $65.00 per person each way from Chicago to Rome and Rome to Chicago (approximately $260.00 total). This was for seats 14C (Kathy Dal Santo) and 14A (Keda Dalsanto) each way. On September 7th, I went to confirm our seats and flight information as we were a short time away from our trip. There was an option asking if we would like to upgrade to a higher class. There were 2 options here - 1 - bid on business class seats and 2 - pay a pre-set price to guarantee the seats. We decided to pay the pre-set price in order to secure the seats so we would have a comfortable and restful flight over to Rome. My mother paid with her bank card and confirmed with her bank that the purchase of around $3,000 was truly her. When I went to choose our seats, the online system did not allow me to do so. I called the ITA phone number around 7pm EST for help with this and was informed that we choose our seats when we get to the gate or there is a cost to choose them online. We were okay with this so thought we had our business class upgrade. My mother (Kathy) received an email from ITA Airways later that evening / early the morning of the 8th stating that our upgrade was denied. The email stated our original seats were still in place. We confirmed with the bank that nothing was charged so we were disappointed but figured we would check at the gate if we could upgrade at that time. - September 10th, 2024: I flew from Indianapolis to Hartford, CT where my mom lives and we took the afternoon to confirm our flights and check ins and boarding passes. We were able to check in for our United flight from CT to Chicago without issue. We were not able to check in for the ITA Airways flight from Chicago to Rome. I called ITA Airways around noon EST to confirm our seats and find out how to get boarding passes and was informed we did not have seats from Chicago to Rome but did have seats from Rome to Chicago. I immediately called Glimmer and was informed we did indeed have tickets for the ITA Airways flight from Chicago to Rome. I presumed Glimmer had the correct information and someone at ITA Airways did not so I went about the day and expected to get our boarding passes when we got to the gate on September 11th. I also made a call to United Airlines around 1:30 to confirm our seats. - September 11th, 2024: We arrived at the Hartford, CT airport early for our 11:30am EST flight to Chicago. The United agent confirmed our booking and checked our luggage from CT to ROME. She said she was unable to print the boarding passes from Chicago to Rome and was not certain why but I explained I could not print them either and planned to get them at the gate in Chicago. We arrived in Chicago ahead of schedule which was good since our time between landing and departing to Rome was only 2 hours. We took a bus from Terminal 1 to Terminal 5 and went straight to the ITA Airways gate for our flight. We got to the gate agent and told him we had not been able to get boarding passes. He scanned our passports and told me we did not have tickets on this flight. He entered our names into the system and still nothing for tickets. I immediately called Glimmer (1:39pm CST) and eventually got in touch with Taylor after a couple voice messages back and forth. Taylor informed me there was some sort of glitch with our tickets but the glitch was resolved and our tickets were there. I was told to go back to the gate agent and to have him check again. He did and still we were not on the manifest. I asked them to check if our luggage was on the plane and they checked this and said it was not as luggage can only fly with a ticketed passenger. At this point, the flight has started boarding and we still have no tickets. The gate agent said they had 60 open seats and we could buy tickets there. Glimmer was not able to get this resolved and I felt there was a bad omen about taking this particular flight. The gate agent informed us we needed to leave the gate immediately if we were not taking this trip. My mother and I spent the rest of the day trying to locate our luggage with no success. We decided to not go on the trip and according to a United agent, our initial tickets from Chicago to Rome on September 11th were exchanged for tickets from Chicago to Rome on September 12th. This caused us to be counted as NO SHOW and the remaining flights including our flights home were automatically cancelled. We finally got our luggage on Friday, September 13th and headed to our respective homes on Sunday, September 15th with airfare paid out of our pockets.

Genoa-Paris

Economy

No reason given

We were notified on Aug 3, 2025 that our ITA Airways flight from Genoa to Rome on Aug 8, 2025 was cancelled. That prevented us from getting to the second leg of our flight to Paris (our final destination) before we left early on Aug 9 for California. We called ITA and all the agent told us was that we could get a full refund if we wanted. We did not want a refund we needed a flight to Rome in time for our connection. She said there were no flights. ITA provided ZERO care in helping us try to get to our final destination and we got no money back. The agent was so rude and not apologetic at all. We hunted the internet for new last minute tickets to Paris and all we found were Lufthansa tickets for 878 Euros. We had to get an early morning (4:00) ride to the airport which was 40 minutes away from Zoagli where we were staying. We had to reschedule our prepaid taxi pick up from CDG airport. It was a nightmare!

Successful claim

The flight was not early. It left JFK late and the pilot said it was due to traffic at the airport. He specifically said we were 25 in line. Also, we landed around 2 hours late. The flight was not on time at all. We arrived at the gate for our connection around 13:50 and the gate agent told us they had already rebooked our connecting flight while we were in the air. As a result, we missed our ferry connection and had to take a much more expensive taxi to our hotel since we arrived around 19:00 when we were supposed to arrive at 14:20.

My ITA Airways flight from Naples to Rome was delayed over 5 hours, which caused me to miss all my connecting flights to the United States. Because of this disruption, I had to completely rebook my trip and paid an additional $270 for a new ticket. On top of that, my checked baggage was left behind in Rome and went missing. While waiting for a new flight, I had to pay out-of-pocket for a hotel, Uber rides, and food, which created additional expenses and stress. This delay not only disrupted my travel plans but also caused significant financial loss and inconvenience.

Rome-Ronchi De Legionari

Economy

No reason given

Flight was scheduled to depart 09:15 on 20/08/2025. Contacted via email from Booking.com (where I booked the flight) at 16:58 on 19/08/2025 with confirmation of flight cancellation, less than 24 hours prior to the scheduled departure. The airline (ITA Airways) contacted me via email at 17:07 on 19/08/2025 to confirm flight cancellation, but did not offer any explanation. ITA Airways emailed at 05:08 on 20/08/2025 to provide details that I had been placed on a new flight. This new flight was scheduled to depart Rome at 17:00 on 21/08/2025, and include a two-hour stopover in Milan (which my original direct flight to Trieste did not include). This alternate flight would have had me arrive in Trieste over 36 hours later than originally scheduled, which was in no way possible for me and my travel plans. I had a ticket for a connecting bus from Trieste that I was forced to miss. In addition, this alternate flight would have forced me to source accommodation in Rome for an additional night at extremely short notice. In order to try and keep my schedule, I was forced to book a train from Rome to Trieste (via Venice), at short notice and at high cost. I missed an important appointment as a result of my delayed arrival in Trieste, and am obviously out of pocket for the additional costs involved with being forced to make alternate arrangements.

We went to check in for our flight that we booked with a scheduled departure for July 15 and when we tried to check in, it said check in wasn't available yet. My home page for my upcoming flights showed the flight information for July 15, but Christopher went to check in and his said July 16. When I clicked into my flight details, that's when it showed the 16th. We immediately checked our booking email to make sure it wasn't our own mistake and our booking emails said we booked our flight for July 15th. I called ITA support to understand what was happening and all they could say was that our "flight was cancelled and rescheduled for the 16th and I'm so sorry". They wouldn't give us any information about why it was cancelled and why weren't informed. They just kept saying sorry and to submit a claim. Due to this, we had to scramble to find another place to stay for a night, which included another train and meals. Additionally, i had to take an unplanned additional day off of work, utilizing a Paid Time Off (PTO) day, i did not want to use.

We finally arrived at 00:00 (delayed again with the new flight for 45 min! ) at the airport of Barcelona , our final destination, instead of that 15:55. We lost our rented car because the rental company was closing at 23:30 (that was 118.82€ loss) . The ITA airways only thing they provided, was that new flight that took us at 00:00 as I said earlier (delayed again). I asked for compensation, there at Rome desk customer support (while waiting for the next flight) and they said to do an online compensation procedure. I applied the form online on 14/7/2025( see attached ) and the answer I got was negative (on 21/7/2025 see attached) and the reason was β€œOur records indicate that flight AZ 719 was delayed due to air traffic control restrictions” . I replied back asking for proofs but I never got a response even with several reminders. I was traveling with my family , two small children (3 and 6) , they got dead tired and thank God a friend picked me up and took me to the Hotel , 2 hours away. I will never book with ITA again.

Successful claim

Subject: Formal EU 261/2004 Compensation Claim – Denied Boarding for Second Passenger To: customer.relations@ita-airways.com (or official claims email) Dear ITA Airways Customer Relations, On 13/8/2025, under booking reference R-4122045, two passengers β€” Hailey Peterson and Florine Achthoven β€” were booked on ITA Airways flight AZ110 from Rome–Fiumicino to Amsterdam, originally scheduled to depart at 14:35. Both passengers presented themselves at the check-in desk more than 2.5 hours before departure. At check-in, we were immediately informed that we could not board the flight due to overbooking and were instructed to wait. After waiting for approximately one hour, your staff informed us that only one seat was available on the scheduled flight. As we were travelling together, the airline could not accommodate both passengers on the same flight. We were subsequently rebooked on an alternative service with KLM departing at 19:40, arriving significantly later than our original itinerary. This delay was entirely due to the involuntary denied boarding caused by overbooking. Importantly, both passengers were provided with meal vouchers by ITA Airways during the delay, confirming that the airline recognised both travellers as eligible for care and assistance under EU Regulation 261/2004. The same Regulation makes clear that each passenger denied boarding against their will is entitled to financial compensation in addition to care and assistance. For flights under 1,500 km, the applicable compensation is €250 per passenger (Article 7 of EU Regulation 261/2004). While compensation of €250 has been issued for Hailey Peterson, Florine Achthoven β€” who was equally affected β€” has not yet received payment. This constitutes a clear breach of the Regulation. I hereby request the payment of €250 to Florine Achthoven within 14 calendar days of this email. Should payment not be received within that timeframe, I will escalate the matter to the Inspectie Leefomgeving en Transport (ILenT) in the Netherlands and to ENAC in Italy without further notice.

The cancellation of our first flight from Genoa (GOA) to Rome (FCO) on July 13, 2025, directly led to the cancellation of our connecting flight to Sofia (SOF). The scheduled layover time between these two flights was 2 hours, causing us to miss important pre-arranged commitments at our destination.

My daughter bought my ticket online July 29, 2025 to go from venice to Boston , there was an error in my name and as soon as we realized the same day we called to make the correction to the airline. They asked me for a copy of my passport via Email and I sent it at the same time. Everything seemed to be fixed when I checked the ticket online. When I arrived to do my check on August 6 to take my flight they told me there was an error in the name and I had to call the airline to correct it and make a payment of 29 dollars to be able to make the correction, I called and we paid. After having made the correction and the payment of 29 dollars, I was notified that there was no time because the flight had already left, and that I had no other option than to pay for another flight of 821 euros to leave on August 7, it was a festrating for me and for my daughter who is waiting for me in the US to meet my grandson who has just been born. I hope I can have answers, I called the aerolinia 3 times and they didn't help me, the first 3 people I talked to treated me indecent, and in the end I called again and the last time I'm sorry for talking I treated myself very well.

Strike

Formal Complaint Regarding Unprocessed Refund – Flight Cancellation on 31 March 2025 Dear ITA Airways Customer Service, I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding a refund that has not yet been processed following the cancellation of my flight to Cairo on 31 March 2025 due to a national strike. On 27 March, I contacted your customer service to request a refund. I was informed that the process could take up to 90 days and that I would receive confirmation. However, I did not receive any confirmation at that time. A week later, I called again, and during this second contact, I was sent a β€œrefund notice,” which I did receive. I waited patiently until 92 days had passed since my initial request, but no refund had been issued. Upon contacting your service again, I was told that the refund should already have been processed and was advised to check with my bank. My bank, however, could not find any trace of the refund and referred me to either ITA Airways or Mastercard. I contacted both ITA Airways and Mastercard, but neither could provide any evidence of a refund transaction. I was once again referred back to ITA Airways to resolve the matter. In a subsequent phone call with one of your representatives, I was told that my case had been escalated to a higher level and that I would be contacted within two weeks. Unfortunately, it has now been more than two weeks, and I have still received no follow-up or resolution. As a student, I am financially dependent on this refund, and the lack of clear communication and action from your side has caused me significant distress and inconvenience. I respectfully request that this matter be addressed urgently and that my refund be processed without further delay. Please confirm receipt of this complaint and provide an update on the status of my refund. Sincerely, AΓ―cha Sefiani 0552110089109/YIZKMY AZ165 31/03/2025 sefaicha1@hotmail.com

Bag never made it to Rome.

I filed a report with ITA airways at the airport. They told me the bag would be arriving later that day and they would deliver it to my cruise ship the next day before we left. They told me i can buy clothes/toiletries and I would be reimbursed. I get to the cruise port and my bag is not there! I track my bag and it says it’s in Rome. So now I’m getting on a cruise with no clothes. I buy what i can find in the cities to get me through. My cruise ship finally gets my bag for me in Sicily. So 4 days no bag! I had to pay $119.85 to my cruise ship for them going to get the bag- and i paid around 300 euros for clothes etc. ITA airways only offered me $163 which is short- Euros are with more than dollars so around $300 short. I asked them for more as I provided all the receipts. They declined!!! They lost my bag for 4 days caused extreme emotional damage and not to mention panic of trying to find undergarments and clothes in Europe where there’s isn’t a target handy. My trip was completely ruined at the beginning because of this and I expected to get reimbursed!

Influence by other flights

Flight from Atlanta got delayed 2/3 hours, so I arrived in Rome with a 15-minute layover. They said over the plane to allow people on the ITA airways flight to get off and run to the flight, and they would hold it, but the plane was already gone. This caused me to wait two hours for luggage in Rome and then take trains to Florence.

Charged for baggage when we were within allowance

We flew business class and we are allowed up to 32kg per luggage. This is clearly stated on their website. We had one that was only 29kg but we were forced to pay €68 for an overweight baggage fee. I contacted them, but they refuse to refund our money.

Technical problems

We arrived at 16:50 to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. We waited for 30 minutes and on the screen the bags were delayed. Then the personnel told us that the was a technical disruption so the bags were still in Rome and were not delivered to Amsterdam. When the luggage arrives in Amsterdam they will ship it to the destination.

I want to please report a very bad incident happened with my mom (Gihan beshai) From your agent on the counter on dropping off our bags. We headed to the counter and a lady helped us to weigh the bags and there was an extra 1 kg do we decided to move it from 1 bag to the other bag which was only 20 kg. So i took out 2 things and the lady asked us to move aside and my mom took the bag on the side to make space to the next customer. Another agent his name Mezza started to scream at my mom and tell her to move from where she put her bag and she did move it and she doesnt understand english well, same time i was still talking to the other agent( the lady). I came to my mom and i asked her wats going on and suddenly i was told by the agent (the guy) that he threatens us we are not travelling . This happened in couple seconds when i came and i found him ripped my 1st bag tag that the lady agent put and he keep speaking to me like am not a human being and i asked him couple times can u calm down and he forced me to apolplogize and i kept saying sorry like 10 times and he says you are not travelling and i keep telling him she doesnt understand english well maybe she misunderstood you and he keeps leaving me and dont listen to me like i did a crime instead helping my mom who is old lady and her english is not good. I tried to wait for him to finish with other customers and waited until he calm down. I suffered from great humiliation from him that i must say sorry that made me cry and i dun understaNd wats going on. Instead of helping an old lady that she doesnt understand english well, he made her suffer from humiliation, me as well. Because she was trying to follow your regulations and move from a bag to another bag to make the weight under ur limit, she faced a misbehavior from your agent. My mom eventually fainted on the floor and someone from employees brought her a chair. She had a panic attack that i tried to calm her down because of his behavior and how he humiliated us and u can check plz the cameras of the airport of the whole incident. My mom was about to go to emergency because she faced medical issues from his customer service. I had to request wheelchair for her after because she couldnt stand well from loosing her temper and crying and she wasnt aware wat was a big deal happened that he confirmed that cancelled our flight . As fast as my mom fainted, he rushed to put the flight for us and print the tickets however he lied and said no chance any more for you because i cancelled the tickets . I need to report this or i will sue the crew and the company. Me and my mom faced a big humiliation. We need please our rights back. 1st as human 2nd as custome

Crew is very unprofessional and rude to passengers.

Crew refused to make some space to go back to the seat in a very rude way. I was seated in premium Economy , crew asked me to use the rear restroom as the front is only for business. As i was going back to my seat after using the rear restroom, the crew asked me to stay for more than 10 minutes standing while their was turbulence and almost fell in the aisle as they refused to move the trolly from the way.
