Ala Littoria was the Italian national airline that operated during the 1930s and 1940s. It was formed by a merger of SAM - Societa Aerea Mediterranea, SANA - Societa Anonima Navigazione Aerea, SISA - Societa Italiana Servizi Aerei and AEI - Aero Espresso Italiana in 1934. The airline created by this merger was owned by the Italian government and predominantly featured the Italian flag on its aircraft. Ala Littoria flew to destinations across Europe and Italian colonies in Africa. During the Second World War, Ala Littoria acted as a transport service for the Italian military. However the airline did not survive the war and was disbanded.
