Planning your trip to Rome, Italy? One of the first steps is to book your flights! To avoid long layovers or missing your connecting flight, we highly recommend booking a direct flight to Rome from the United States. In this guide, find out which U.S. cities offer direct flights, how long you’ll be in transit, and roughly how much it will cost.


Pro Tip: Planning what to do on your trip to Rome? Bookmark this post in your browser so you can easily find it when you’re in the city. See our guide to Rome for more planning resources, our top Rome tours for a memorable trip, and how to see Rome in a day.

How To Fly Direct from the United States To Rome

For many, Italy is the first country people travel to when experiencing Europe for the first time. Of course, deciding what to do once you get to Rome is a whole other story. We can help you with that too! Check out our awesome Rome tours.

First, you have to understand the best way to get to Rome from where you live. We always recommend taking a direct flight if possible, so you don’t have to worry about missing your layover flight. In this guide, find a comprehensive list of direct flights to Rome.

Which Rome Airport To Fly Into

Rome has two major airports: Fiumicino and Ciampino. While Ciampino offers many flights to and from other countries in Europe, it’s not designed for intercontinental flights.

More clearly, you won’t be flying into Ciampino if you’re coming from the United States. The airport you’ll be flying into is Fiumicino Airport, which is about a 40-minute drive from Rome’s city center.

The following U.S. cities have direct flights to Rome. Prices listed below depend upon how in advance you book your trip. Each price you see is the average price of a roundtrip ticket to Rome. We’ve also included the flight time, so you can make your decision.
