I think the livery could do with a sprucing up though.
Btw, is the the second A319 I see in the background? behind that swissair 321. You can just mak out the red tail and the Meridian.
EDIT:
but then again, looking at it, that tail look more like a Boeing tail.
It doesn’t as that gradual curve at the top of the leading edge.If I didn’t know any better I’d say 757

They are replacements for the old Bae 146’s and are to based at Florence, Italy. They chose the A319 as it can fly from Florence’s short runway.

These replacing the MD80s, or just the introduction of a new type to complement the existing fleet?
