Rome flight?

I am looking at a non stop direct AIr Canada Rome to Toronto (YYZ) for 10am.

 

I will off a Princess ship.

 

Would I make this flight?

No you will likely miss the flight.

 

I would want to be to FCO (which can be a chaotic airport) at least two and one half hours prior to the flight.

 

I would add on about a one hour drive time. Could be slightly shorter but one hour is what I would assume.

 

Since I don't like stress in my case I like to be at FCO three hours early rather then the two and one half I mentioned.

 

I wouldn't attempt a flight this early.

 

If you really like the flight consider staying over and flying home the next day. There are hotels at and nearby the airport.

Keith is absolutely correct. Highly unlikely you will make this flight.

 

Took that flight a couple of years ago, after spending the night in the Hilton FCO. You needed to physically be in the airport by 8am at the latest to be comfortable.

 

Discussed frequently on the Italy board.

Thanks, I am in the planning stage.

You don't indicate your date of travel but I don't see a direct flight @ 10:00 (the flight I see at that time goes via Frankfurt). Something after noon hour would be much safer.

 

The airport is about 40 minutes away (depending on traffic) via shuttle and once at the airport you'll find it crowded and backed up. 2 hrs PRIOR to departure is the minimum time you should consider.

Thanks, I am in the planning stage.

 

You are very welcome.

 

I am glad you asked first. From time to time people ask after they booked the air and at that point options are more limited without a penalty.

There are some beautiful small towns and lakes around the port area. Check with Rome Cabs and some of the other local tour/transfer companies about a tour of the area and a drop off at a hotel near the airport. It makes for nice day rather than just sitting around a hotel. There is no way you can make a 10am flight unless everything else is just perfect and you are very lucky with traffic etc.

You don't indicate your date of travel but I don't see a direct flight @ 10:00 (the flight I see at that time goes via Frankfurt).

Although I didn't search every possible day, I also don't see a nonstop, FCO-YYZ leaving at 10:00 a.m.

Which, of course, would have been apparent had the OP bothered to do a simple little thing like including dates in their post.

 

<sigh>

To be fair, the date of travel was pretty much irrelevant to the question which the OP was asking. The (im)possibility of making a 1000 flight from FCO on the day of disembarkation is probably universal to every possible travel date.

 

I was, however, intrigued by the inability of others to find the flight. If you have the tools, it's actually quite easy to locate - but you do need to know what you're looking for and why.

Nooooo, don’t do it! The airport is about an hours drive from the cruise terminal, and Rome is an especially busy airport. I wouldn’t risk any flights prior to 1:00, personally.

Thanks for all your information. I am just looking and getting ideas in the planning stage.

THANK YOU!!

 

Far better than the usual "I've bought this flight and now I'm wondering if I have enough time to (fill in the blank)".

Oops! :D

 

I thought I'd been doing so well. That's actually the first time that I've done that this year.

We opted to stay one night extra in Rome. Had the BEST time and were rested, smiling and de-stressed heading to the airport the next morning. We used a car service.

Very nice.

 

A lot less stressing and so nice to enjoy Rome for another day/evening.

Are you considering booking your flight through the cruiseline? Farewise, we've found that to be very advantageous, although a nonstop flight certainly has great appeal.

The reason I ask is that usually the cruiseline air won't even list a flight that early as a choice.

Our flights back from Rome have been around noon or so.
