You know you are in Italy when...

-When passenger asks flight attendant "Ue' le cresce mica un corsera?"

-When, stuck somewhere with a huge slot because destination Linate is fogged in, Milanese businessman pax tells everybody you're lying because his driver waiting for him at the airport just told him "it's fine"!

-When three out of four infant lifejackets and extension belts distributed are kept as "souvenirs" at the end of the flight

-Where a flight attendant like "principino" can and did serve the flag carrier for an entire career (retired AZ flight attendant famous for his manners... like the time he threw a meal onto a passenger's table, and when the passenger asked whether he had a choice, meaning chicken or fish, Principino answered "yep you can eat or you can starve"... or the time a rather overweight American lady passenger asked him for a diet coke and he answered "Madam, it's too late")
