I flew ITA Airways for my birthday trip to Italy, and it was such a great start to the celebration!…read moreThe food service was genuinely impressive--they served several snacks and full meals throughout the flight, and everything tasted surprisingly good for airline food. The movie selection was perfect and gave me the chance to finally catch up on shows I'd been meaning to watch. The seats were super comfy too, not to mention my window seat view catching magic hour --I slept like a baby, which never happens on flights! Overall, ITA Airways made the long journey feel easy and enjoyable. I'd gladly fly with them again!

I flew on Air China's FCO (Rome Fiumicino) to PEK (Beijing Capital) route Economy Class. The plane…read morewas an Airbus A330, which is a fairly big plane. I would leave Rome in the evening and arrive in Beijing in the early afternoon. The flight was about 11 hours. It was probably the first flight I would ever fly from Europe to Asia, which is really cool. I also thought I got a moderate deal from them. The airline ticket counter might be hard to find in Rome's airport, so you may have to check with Alitalia since Air China codeshares with that airline as well for this route. The food was actually good on the flight. Definitely not as good as the food on Cathay Pacific's flights, but I remember getting a Beef and Rice dish, and the beef was actually tender and the peppers were decent. Rice seemed to be nice, soft and hot enough as if the rice came out of a rice cooker. The egg breakfast they served was just okay and it really tasted like processed food. Flight attendants can speak English, but it's very passable and sometimes incomprehensible. They were courteous and polite. They cannot speak Italian which might be difficult for the Italian passengers who do not know English or Mandarin Chinese. There was an incident on the flight where a passenger who was sitting close to me could only speak Italian and French and she had trouble communicating with the flight attendants. I had to do some minor translation work for the lady, since I knew some French. There was some turbulence, but I was able to get some sleep throughout most of the flight. They do offer some good in-flight entertainment options, a good selection of "on-demand" international films from all over the world, but mostly American and Chinese films. The remote control was a tiny bit difficult to use, but I did not use it often, mainly to check to see where the plane was. Once cool thing is that you could view the plane take off and land from the "cockpit camera". I have not seen this feature since flying on Swiss International Airlines. Overall, I had a decent flight and I did not feel any jet lag when I arrived in Beijing. This is probably the airline I could turn to if I really wanted to fly to Beijing, particularly from Europe, since they offer some decent deals.

How can you explain this except incompetence? Also, this is one of those airlines where they try to sell you everything, even water on the flight. Bring whatever you need or be ready to be gouged.

Autogrill today is a food supplier to service area food joints and airlines…read more At the road stops, it's a cross between a convenience store, a fast food joint, and a coffee stop. Each standalone location is different though, some are smaller shops, and others look more like a fast food restaurant. They used to be popular in the late 79s -80s and now more like a supplier for airport stands and airlines.

Online form won't let you fill it out. Tried calling Delta (who included KLM in our flight). They kept us on hold for 45 minutes. Gave up. Called Air France, per KLM instructions. They are forcing us to spend our time in Rome going back to the airport to get their form. Why can't they email it? No one knows.... I would never choose this airline again.

He showed us approx 10 different places with smoking from each. He has a sincere personality very warm and welcoming. It was like being with extended family. We got to Meet two other families one from England and one from Australia both were very interesting and warm. An absolutely great night of people, food, and drink. We did the drink package but wasn't necessary as those who did not still got a little wine along the way. If you like... coffee, Prosecco, spritz, pizza, beer, cheese, rice balls, wine, cheese, more wine, cannoli, pasta and gelato... this tour is for you! I can only hope you get to Meet Robbie!

Rome may not have been built in a day, however you can sample some of the best in Italian cuisine…read morein just one afternoon. Secret Food Tours offers three-hour long tours that take you on a gastronomical adventure throughout the heart of Rome. This experience is more than just delicious food, which is what makes Secret Food Tours so unique. The tour explores Piazza Navonna, a city square ripe with history, as well as the Campo Dei Fiori Market, offering sightseeing as well as culinary escapades. Along with four other visitors, we embarked on a daytime tour, which started at an intimate café in Piazza Novanna. Our tour guide Tomasso was a local Italian and incredibly knowledgeable about the city square and its rich background. Here, he introduced us to the finest Italian coffee, freshly brewed for our group. I sipped a cappuccino, which alerted my taste buds with rich, full-bodied flavor and an airy foam. I was awake and eager for the next stop. While enjoying three different types of real Roman style pizza at Forno Campo de Fiori, our tour guide made us feel so welcomed. He took great pride in his city, and it showed in his passion for both the locales and the food. Next we stopped at a specialty shop, known for fried balls of risotto, called Suppli, which basically solidified my trust in anything this delicious city had to feed me. Crispy on the outside, warm and creamy on the inside. I was excited to visit the Campo Dei Fiori Market, which as our guide informed us is the oldest market in the town. With so many fresh and beautiful vegetables, it's easy to see why the food in the area is incredibly tasty. I was pleasantly surprised to do some sightseeing during the tour, as we got to see some of the Roman ruins that dot the city and here a few stories of the many narrow streets. Whether it was Carbonara near the Jewish Ghetto, amazing cannoli at a legendary bakery, and salty Italian hams, salamis, and cheeses at 'Beppe', our guide always made us feel like locals. We ended on a sweet note with the most refreshing gelato. Our tour guide was so fun and friendly, and the food was exquisite. A real "taste" of Rome.
