1977 Alitalia Airlines Commercial (DC-10 Intercontinental Service) Welcome onboard/Benvenuti a Bordo

Vintage Alitalia commercial featuring their DC-10 aircraft and a look at their complete onboard intercontinental service from boarding, pre-departure, and inflight food, beverage, and entertainment services (in both first and economy class). This is a fascinating glimpse not only into the service but great interior footage and cabin shots onboard their DC-10 as well as external takeoff and landing shots. “Care and attention, that’s our onboard service…that’s flying Alitalia.”
"There is a section reserved for non-smokers on all our aircraft"

I can see why everyone misses that era.

[@stvpls]

We Italians miss it alot when we were a booming country in every sector from electronics to cars to industries, then politics, taxes and Europe turned us into basically a "fancier" third word country

Todavía era la época donde los asientos eran anchos y las rodillas no se chocaban con el asiento de adelante.
Yo viajé a italia en el año 1974 ( buenos aires- roma con el Dc-10 ), y era tal cual, te alcanzaban la frazada si tenias frío, las pantuflas si se hinchaban los pies. Tambien recuerdo que era la epoca que se podia visitar al capitan en la cabina, para las mujeres momento super emocionante
