The Fleets
Navigazione Libera Triestina
The company was registered in 1906 at Trieste, then part
of Austria-Hungary and operated cargo services world wide. In 1918 Trieste
became a part of Italy and the fleet transferred to the Italian flag.
From 1921 passenger services to New York were instituted and in 1927
a Genoa - Naples - Gulf of Mexico service started. In 1937 the fleet
was split between Italia and Lloyd
Triestino and disappeared as a seperate
concern.
