Air Dolomiti
Air Dolomiti S.p.A. L.A.R.E (Linee Aeree Regionali Europee) is an Italian regional airline, wholly owned by Lufthansa. It is a member of Lufthansa Regional and has its head office in Dossobuono, Villafranca di Verona. Its main bases are at Munich Airport and Frankfurt Airport in Germany.
Air Dolomiti operates routes from several Italian destinations to and from Munich and Frankfurt. Most of these services are sold under the Air Dolomiti brand and codeshare with Lufthansa, while a few remain under the Lufthansa brand.
Air Dolomiti was established on 30 December 1989 by the Linee Aeree Europee (L.A.E). The airline's name derives from the section of the Alps known as the Dolomites. It started airline operations in January 1991 with a Trieste-Genoa route. In 1992, the airline started international services with flights from Verona to Munich.
After several years of co-operation, Lufthansa acquired a 26% stake in January 1999 and increased it to 52% in April 2003 and 100% in July 2003. Although most Lufthansa Regional subsidiaries operate under their parent's name and colours, Air Dolomiti retains its own identity.
The airline employed some 748 people in June 2020. At one time the airline's registered office was in Dossobuono, Villafranca di Verona, while the airline's executive headquarters were in Ronchi dei Legionari.
In September 2018, Lufthansa announced it would expand Air Dolomiti's fleet significantly by 12 pre-owned Embraer 190 and 195 aircraft to be transferred from sister company Lufthansa CityLine. However in late 2021, Lufthansa stated that the transfer was no longer confirmed and may be continued later or on a smaller scale if at all. Later on, two Embraer 195 were transferred from Lufthansa CityLine by spring 2022. In late 2022, Lufthansa confirmed it would transfer further aircraft from Lufthansa CityLine to Air Dolomiti to strengthen the group's presence in Italy after its bid to take over ITA Airways fell apart.
In March 2024, Lufthansa announced plans to expand Air Dolomiti's fleet to 25 aircraft within the year, as the subsidiary is scheduled to take over more routes within the Lufthansa Group network.
As of August 2025[update], Air Dolomiti operates routes from Frankfurt Airport and Munich Airport to 26 destinations in Italy, as well as to other European countries on behalf of its corporate parent, Lufthansa.
