Potential Alitalia cancellations
Alitalia may be forced to cancel some flights on Sunday due to lack of funds for fuel supply purchasing.

The unions earlier quoted him as saying flights could not be "guaranteed" because we cannot "get fuel".

The latest rescue plan of Alitalia has fallen apart earlier this week as the union rejected the proposal.
The slow death seems to be speeding up.
