Management
Within the reorganisation process ran by the Management, the Company has decided to use for its decision processes two important guiding tools: Air One’s Mission Statement and the Code of ethics.
Carlo Toto
Chairman
Born in 1944 in Chieti, Carlo Toto, married with four children, runs the “Gruppo Toto Costruzioni”, a leader in public sector construction, and is the current joint manager of the A24 and A25 motorways.

Air One is the first airline to break Alitalia's monopoly in the national air transport sector, starting with the Rome - Milan route and later with other national routes. The evolution of the network and the Company's expansion, thanks to the new partnership with Lufthansa, has turned Air One into a leading carrier in the national air transport sector.
