Cypher query: how to filter a MATCH based on a previous result?

I'm working with a graph model that looks like the one below (source). enter image description here

I want to find all domestic flights for a particular country, that is flights that have both a DESTINATION and SOURCE flight in an airport that belongs to that country. This is the Cypher query I'm working on:

MATCH (cr:Country {name:'Italy'})<-[:EXIST]-(ct:City)<-[:IS_IN]-(ai:Airport)
WITH ai
MATCH (ai)-[:DESTINATION|:SOURCE]-(f:Flight)-[:OF]-(ar:Airline)
WITH ar as airline, count(distinct(f)) as flights
ORDER BY flights DESC
RETURN airline.name, flights
LIMIT 10

The problem with the above query is that it will also return flights with a DESTINATION or SOURCE that is not in Italy. Can you help me to rephrase the query to get the correct results?

Your query is allowing the SOURCE OR the DESTINATION to be in Italy. You want both of them to be in Italy. One option is something like:

MATCH (:Country {name:'Italy'})<-[:EXIST]-(:City)<-[:IS_IN]-(:Airport)-[:SOURCE]-(f:Flight)-[:DESTINATION]-(:Airport)-[:IS_IN]->(:City)-[:EXIST]->(:Country {name:'Italy'})
WITH distinct(f) as flights
MATCH (flights)-[:OF]-(ar:Airline)
WITH ar as airline, count(flights) as flights
ORDER BY flights DESC
RETURN airline.name, flights
LIMIT 10
