Italy's Neos airline to launch first-ever US-Puglia direct route on Tuesday
Milan-based Neos said it will offer weekly flights between New York JFK and Bari Karol Wojtyla Airport between Tuesday, June 3rd and Wednesday, October 15th. Flights to Bari are set to depart from JFK every Tuesday at 5pm and arrive in Puglia's capital at 7.40am the following day. Services in the opposite direction will depart from Bari every Wednesday at 11.35am and arrive in New York at 2.50pm. Passengers will travel on 335-seater Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners offering premium and economy class, the airline said. Puglia's Tourism Minister Gianfranco Lopane hailed the new flights as 'a formidable tool to position our region among the most sought-after international destinations'. 'This route not only makes it easier for American travellers, who are increasingly drawn to Puglia's beauty, culture, and traditions, to visit but also strengthens our ability to engage with a strategic market like the United States,' he added. Neos CEO Carlo Stradotti also expressed satisfaction over the launch of the new route, citing 'very strong interest' in long-haul links to Italy among Americans. 'Interest in [US-Italy] routes and ticket sales have exceeded expectations [...] and we haven't needed to use any promotions,' he said. The new seasonal link to Puglia will bring the number of New York-Italy routes operated by Neos to three, adding to existing JFK-Palermo and JFK-Milan Malpensa direct flights. The Italian airline's New York-Bari route is one of three US-Italy seasonal connections set to be launched this week, with American Airlines due to offer daily direct flights connecting Miami to Rome Fiumicino and Dallas-Fort Worth to Venice Marco Polo from Thursday, June 5th.

Anger mounts in Florence as closure looms for US consulate
The Florence Consulate is one of over 100 bureaus and offices targeted for closure under President Donald Trump's sweeping plans to downsize the US State Department to slash costs and improve efficiency. Besides the Florence Consulate, other consulates slated for closure include Rennes, Lyon, Strasbourg, and Bordeaux in France, as well as Dusseldorf, Leipzig, and Hamburg in Germany. First announced in late April, plans to overhaul the State Department were formally presented to Congress by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Thursday. "The reorganisation plan will result in a more agile Department, better equipped to promote America's interests and keep Americans safe across the world," Rubio said in a statement. The congressional notification sparked anger among Americans in Florence, reigniting concerns that thousands of US residents and visitors in the area may soon be stripped of quick access to essential services including emergency assistance in the event of natural disasters and hospitalisations. Mary Lokken, a California native who has been living in Florence for over 40 years, told La Repubblica that closing the Florence Consulate means 'depriving us of services that we all use at least once – from the issuance of visas and passports to information on taxes and elections, and even social benefits". Lindsey Brock, a member of local activist group Good Trouble Firenze, also voiced anger over the planned closure, calling it 'yet another cut to services aimed at American citizens'. 'Foreign residents and tourists will pay the real price," she added. According to La Repubblica, the Florence Consulate offers support to around four million visitors every year, as well as over 200 businesses operating between Italy and the US. If it were to close, US nationals in the area would need to travel to one of the country's other consulates in Milan or Naples, or the Rome Embassy to access help. The planned closure is 'madness,' Maurizio Mancianti, president of the Tuscan American Association, said. This 'directly affects all American citizens who live or pass through here', as well as 'anyone who needs to travel to or run a business in the United States,' he added. Plans to close the Florence Consulate were also harshly criticised by Mayor Sara Funaro, who called the move 'reckless' given 'the many Americans who study and work' in the city. Funaro said she intended to ask Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani and US authorities for clarification on the matter. 'Florence cannot be written off like this," she said. Following last week's developments, the Florence Consulate said it would 'continue carrying out its usual activities' pending official communications from the US.

Major Mount Etna eruption in Sicily sends tourists fleeing in panic
The eruption began at around 3.50am local time, following a series of volcanic tremors which started around midnight. Italy's National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) said in a statement that the volcano was experiencing explosions 'of growing intensity' and that eruption activity was currently "almost continuous". 'Over the past few hours, the falling of thin ash has been flagged in the Piano Vetore area [south of the volcano],' the statement added. 'From a seismic point of view, the values of the tremor amplitude are currently high with a tendency to increase further,' INGV noted. The Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre in Toulouse, one of nine centres used to monitor aviation risks around the world, warned that Mount Etna's ash plume had reached an altitude of around 6,400 metres. Footage widely shared on social media (click here if it doesn't show below) showed people running down one side of the volcano, as a thick column of smoke billowed above them. #Etna éruption en live — 🥗Aurelien Pouzin🍯 (@aurelienpouzin) June 2, 2025 There were no immediate reports of injuries following the eruption. Italian media reports also said there was no immediate risk to the local population, which is accustomed to Mount Etna's frequent eruptions. "Everything's under control," Catania Mayor Enrico Tarantino told Il Sole 24 Ore. "There's no critical issue," he said. "Based on our monitoring of the volcano, [the eruption] was expected, and access to the summit had already been restricted." Flights to and from Catania's Vincenzo Bellini Airport weren't affected by the volcano's eruption, according to the latest local media reports. Though the airport remained fully operational, Sicily's aviation authorities issued an orange alert earlier on Monday, urging pilots to exercise caution when flying near the area. Mount Etna is Europe's largest and most active volcano. It last erupted on February 11th, spewing hot ash and lava from its top crater. Mount Etna's most destructive eruption on record took place in 1669, when lava swept through villages located on the volcano's slopes all the way down to Catania, on Sicily's eastern coast. Defensive walls protected the city and sent molten rock plunging into the harbour. Major eruptions have taken place roughly twice a decade since the 1970s, often accompanied by earthquakes. The last time an eruption resulted in the loss of human life was 1987, when a woman and her seven-year-old son were caught in a sudden explosion while walking near the summit with their tour group.
