Lessons learned

Well I’m back home more or less in one piece 
The trip was nice, the service of the crew of Alitalia was ok, they always had a smile, the trip took me to Milan then Marseille before reaching Montpellier, I had forgotten to check the diparture time from Milan to Marseille, and the out come was that my bagage was lost (again :?)
It always happens when I take Alitalia with a 2h or less stop over, I honestly don’t know why? AirFrance handles the bags differently, once the plane was late and when I reached Paris I had less than 30 minutes to catch my connecting flight (you could immagine how worried I was), but when I disembarked from tha plane, I saw a guy holding a piece of paper with my name on it, he took me with the car back to the plane, asked me to pick out my bag (he verified the sticker) then took me and the bag directly to the plane, he put the bag in the cargo hold and I embarked, no worries, no hassel, no fuss.
Currently both airlines are part of an alliance called SkyTeam
I don’t know about the other companies, but I don’t know why there is a big difference between the two seeing that they have a common goal and alliance
