Neos Air has revealed plans to launch a direct flight connecting Bari Karol Wojtyła Airport and New York JFK Airport. This service will operate weekly using Neos Air's Boeing 787 Dreamliner, primarily serving the visiting friends and relatives (VFR) market, especially US-Italians. This new route is part of Neos Air's expansion in the United States from various Italian cities and highlights the growing significance of air travel between Italy and the US.
Bari has not had regular transatlantic passenger flights in its nearly century-long history. The new route to New York aims to serve approximately 88,000 passengers who traveled between Bari and North America in the year ending July 2024, with New York being the largest market among them.
Carlo Stradiotti, CEO at Neos Air, commented on this development: “We strongly believe in the potential of the Puglia market. The number of passengers in the region’s airports continues to grow and it is our objective to transport nearly 12,700 travelers in the first year of operation."
