Alitalia - Linee Aeree Italiane S.p.A. was established on 16 September 1946 as Aerolinee Italiane Internazionali. It was formed as a result of an Anglo-Italian agreement and was funded by the Italian government and British European Airways (BEA). Its popular name, Alitalia, blended the Italian words ali (wings) and Italia (Italy). It started operations on 5 May 1947. Alitalia aircraft have covered numerous special liveries, both for promotional and commemorative purposes.  In April 1998, the Boeing 747-200 I-DEMS was painted with a promotional livery, for the Italian fashion house Bulgari, which promoted the Bulgari Aluminium watch.
