Alitalia Airlines Tasteful Flew on a packed 747 to Rome with good meals and no ground irritations. Nice service and pleasant flight crew too. Check in time was an acceptable 30 minutes or less. Flew the 13 hour flight to Hong Kong aboard a packed 747 but the flight crew and on-board amenities totally overcame the long and sardine like conditions. Check in time was an acceptable 30 minutes or less.
Food is indifferent and service has been variable.
Their web site is very nice.
