American Airlines, in partnership with the Chicago Department of Aviation and the Consulate General of Italy in Chicago, hosted an inaugural event Tuesday evening to mark American’s new service from Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD) to Naples-Capodichino International Airport (NAP).

“A visit to the port city of Naples has so much to offer — from exploring the ancient ruins of Pompeii to tasting pizza in the city it was created or traveling to the nearby picturesque Amalfi Coast,” said Ben Humphrey, American’s Vice President of ORD Operations.
