Not really! I just gathered these over the time and there happen to be more Alitalias than others... I kind of like Alitalia. I could always laugh about that great italien mentality. I once flew on them during a soccer match of the Italian national team. The flight was pretty empty (like most Alitalia flights unfortunatly are...) and the crew had a radio in the cockpit. Door was open, the F/As told the few passengers to help themselves and that was the flight. I liked it - Italy won!
