<p>New York(JFK)&mdash;Rome(FCO)</p>

- 

CHECK-IN AND BOARDING: At JFK, there’s a small lounge off the general check-in area allowing for a very private, relaxed check-in process. Aside from food and drinks, a row of gate agents handles check-ins and other flight issues. At the gate, the boarding process was fast and easy with a dedicated line for Business Class (and Priority) passengers, along with a separate jetway leading to the Business Class cabin.

THE SEAT: The flat-bed seat is both comfortable and beautiful, handcrafted in leather by Poltrona Frau, the same company that makes the interiors of Ferrari automobiles. The 1-2-1 Business Class cabin configuration offers a nice degree of privacy, especially for the window seats. Three of the five pairs of center seats are closer together (1,3 and 5 E and G), two pairs have more separation between them (2 and 4 D and H). The ones close together are referred to as “honeymoon” seats and may be too close together for solo travelers. For sleeping, a Frette linen sheet set is fitted on the seat and a full-size pillow is provided. One minor complaint, the IFE system had a nice number of titles, but they were presented in a rather clunky interface with no previews available.
