"An Alenia Spazio spokeswoman said that none of the company's officials were available to comment because of a company-wide summer vacation period." Typical Italian... (I'm Italian myself btw)

The French do the same. I see nothing wrong with it.

  The whole set of top management taking off at one time? Maybe for a remote startup company, but c'mon as a taxpayer it must be infuriating.

    As a taxpayer, you don't think about being infuriated as you're on the beach yourself during your own summer vacation.

      It is the same in Sweden. Most of the country shuts down during summer and we're fine with it because we do too have our vacations right then.

      Ah! I actually didn't think of it like that.
