Our side only had two seats and the opposite side had three seats with the middle seat without a seatbelt - to stay vacant. So not truly first class seating in the sense of room and comfort. The attendants were friendly and we did receive snack/drink service without cost. The flight was a little late for take off. Our baggage arrived quickly at the terminal. It would be a 2 star; however, I put more emphasis on customer service.

This time once the gate lady heard me speak English, she demanded I check my bag, despite clearing it with the desk agent for both weight and size. I attached a pic of the nearly empty overhead bins by my seat with a bag bigger than mine in it. Let's hope they don't lose it for the third time. Edit: Waiting for my bag, over 30 min, still no notice to what belt it will be on. My ride I paid for is charging me to wait. The flight was late.

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.

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.

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.

We get an opportunity to learn a few things, explore an unknown area, eat delicious food we might have never found on our own, plus make new friends. Happily, that's exactly what happened! Our tour guide was Rosie and she was so much fun! She not only shared interesting information about Trastevere, but some great food as well! We visited seven different restaurants and enjoyed the following: Burrata cheese, tomatoes, artichokes, and prosecco, suppli, stuffed zucchini flowers (my favorite), porchetto sandwich on bakery bread, cacio e pepe and carbonara with red wine, a maritozzi bun, and gelato. YUM Delicious food + a fun group of people + a hilarious guide = a fantastic tour! This was one of the highlights of our trip to Rome. HIGHLY recommended.

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.
