Flight Cancelled is a collection of comments written by consumers who flew with Alitalia, Italy's main airline company, between 2003 and 2016. These travel experiences originally appeared online at My 3 Cents, Consumer Reports, and Yelp. They are reproduced in this book in reverse chronological order. They have not been edited, changed or sanitized in any way. These are stories of frustration and resistance. Loss and sorrow. Hope and resignation. Negligence and resilience. These are horror stories. These are cautionary tales. Matteo Bittanti is an artist, writer, curator, publisher, translator, and scholar.
