When it says "operated by" that is the carrier that is actually flying the route. In your scenario the flight would be flown on a Delta aircraft by Delta employees.

Mostly two flight mumbers are given when the flight is operated through 2 sectors, i.e. when it is not a direct flight from the station of boarding to the destination station. Alitalia Flight No. 123 will be operated from one sector to another sector by their own aircraft. From the transit point to the destination will be operated by Delta Airline in their aircraft.

Most likely on Delta-owned equipment. Alitalia is a partner of Delta.

If it says: "operated by" means your are flying on a code-share flight. In your case a Delta plane.
But you may very well have an Alitalia ticket and accumulate miles on their frequent flyer programme (or Skymiles/Delta)

If the flight is operated by Delta, then the airplane is a Boeing 767-400.
