About Alitalia Express

Alitalia Express is an airline based in Italy, listed under the ICAO code SMX and the IATA code XM; air traffic control addresses its flights by the callsign "Aliexpress". On this page you can follow Alitalia Express flights and find the airports it serves.

How to read a Alitalia Express flight number

Every Alitalia Express flight number starts with XM, followed by up to four digits: that is the number on your booking confirmation and boarding pass. In flight plans the same flight carries the ICAO prefix SMX, and controllers address it as "Aliexpress". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by Alitalia Express and vice versa; live tracking follows the operating carrier's number, so if your search comes up empty, check the "operated by" line on your booking.
