Side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white,with a green stripe running along the fuselage, sweeping up in to the tail where it forms part of a chevron representing a letter "A", with a red triangle in the middle. There are green "Alitalia" titles on the upper forward fuselage. In the foreground is a body of water, with the taxiway raised several feet above it, while in the background, there is a blue and grey terminal building. Above, the sky is grey.
