Alitalia - worth it?

Hi,

I'd like to first apologize if this is in the wrong section.

I've been searching the archives for information on Alitalia. I'll be taking it on a transatlantic flight in a few weeks.

I'm a bit concerned because what I am getting the impression that the service isn't very good, the fleet is old and, above all, that they are often on strike.

Given that I'm returning to the US for 5 days, taking the risk of a strike is something I'm ill prepared to face.

Also, I have AF elite --- is this going to do me any good on AZ?

So, I guess my question is: Is it worth it or should I seriously consider switching my ticket to a DL or AF flight?

Thanks!
