Rome, Italy - The announcement made by extraordinary commissioner Augusto Fantozzi
(WAPA) - To complete the deal for the sale of AMS a summoning at Palazzo Chigi is now needed. The maintenance company is currently owned by Alitalia at 60% and by Lufthansa at 40%. The former Italian national carrier's extraordinary commissioner, Augusto Fantozzi, said that "It is now a matter of days, the agreement has been reached. We are waiting to be summoned at Palazzo Chigi for the last round of the table".
