Dozens of former flight attendants from defunct Italian airline Alitalia stripped off their uniforms Wednesday, wearing only undergarments in a silent, choreographed protest in central Rome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2192<\/strong> End of an era: Alitalia makes its last flight.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long financially ailing, Italy\u2019s decades-old airline flew its last flight on Oct. 14. A new airline, ITA, began flying the next day, using some of Alitalia\u2019s aircraft. It also bought the Alitalia brand, but it is taking on fewer than 3,000 of Alitalia\u2019s 10,000 employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Union officials say those who will work for ITA are being hired at significantly lower pay scales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2192<\/strong> LEVEL will once again connect Barcelona with Los Angeles.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some 50 former flight attendants stood in rows in a square atop Rome\u2019s Capitoline Hill, lowered their company shoulder bags to the cobblestone pavement, then slowly and in synch, removed their overcoats, then uniform jackets, then skirts, then stepped out of their high-heeled shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They remained barefoot, wearing only a slip, in silence for a few minutes. Then they carefully gathered up their garments and shoes and together shouted, \u201cWe are Alitalia!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Union leaders have been pressing for the government to extend unemployment benefits for as long as five years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
