KUALA LUMPUR (Reuter): Malaysia and Italy will ratify an air
services agreement in November allowing the Malaysian Airline
System (MAS) to land in Rome, the New Straits Times newspaper
reported on Saturday.

The national carrier was given provisional approval to begin
twice weekly flights to Rome in March, it quoted Transport
Minister Ling Liong Sik as saying on Friday.

Ling, who was speaking to reporters after meeting Italy's
civil aviation director-general, Francesco Pugliese, said the MAS
flights to Rome have been averaging a 70 percent passenger load.
