"The new Air Dolomiti food, meal, catering service can be described as simple yet elegant. As most other carriers they too have been cutting the edges on inflight service, yet they master to save costs while providing top quality service to their customers. This was an afternoon flight (roughly 55 minutes in the air). The pastries were rich, moist and really "patisserie" style items: pity they only offered a single round. Their signature cocktail "Settimocielo" (Italian for Seventh Heaven as their service is named) is simply great: it is a concoction of italian sparkling wine and citrus juices, and it is served in long stemmed glasses (real glass, not plastic!). Add to this a very comfortable green leather seat, fabric covered wall panels, and nice stewardesses: is this really cattle class flying? Sorry for the quality of the picture: too much light "killed" the pastry."
