ITA Airways is Star Alliance's newest member. As part of the transition, ITA has begun releasing award space to partners. Now,\u00a0it appears that you can use your Avianca LifeMiles for ITA Airways flights, although no formal announcement has been made by either airline.<\/p>\n

Here's an example of some ITA routes bookable with LifeMiles.<\/p>\n

ITA Airways Routes Bookable With Avianca LifeMiles<\/span><\/h2>\n

We don't know exactly how long ITA Airways flights have been bookable with LifeMiles, but it's likely relatively new, since ITA didn't officially join the Star Alliance until April 1, 2026.<\/p>\n

As a refresher, the airline announced it would leave the SkyTeam alliance<\/a> in early 2025. In September 2025, United and ITA announced an earn-and-redeem partnership<\/a>, followed by Aeroplan's addition of redemptions on ITA Airways in February 2026<\/a>. It was only a matter of time until award seats were released to LifeMiles.<\/p>\n

ITA Airways operates a fairly extensive network from its hub in Rome (FCO), especially considering it was only founded in late 2020 to replace Alitalia. Unfortunately, Avianca LifeMiles doesn't publish an award chart, and many partner awards just underwent a no-notice devaluation<\/a>.<\/p>\n
