Hmm, they do seem a bit high..I just booked JFK to FCO for January & I'm paying $405. (Which I didn't think was a bargain, but isn't bad, either.) I see no harm in waiting a bit to see what happens. (BTW, I began to look at the end of October & they did come down a little.)<BR>Buon Viaggio,<BR>BC

If all else fails, and if price is very important to you, you should look into flying into London - - or even better still, into Brussels. You can fly to Italy very cheaply from there, and I suspect that you can find fares under $350 with under $100 to go onward to Italy.<BR><BR>Best wishes,<BR><BR>Rex<BR>

Barbara, I just checked Orbitz.com on flights from Washington Dulles to Rome departing Saturday, 9 March, returning Sunday, 17 March, and got several fares under $500 including BA to Heathrow and then on to Rome. Just for grins, I also checked Dulles to Milan and got $382 round trip for the same dates above on United!

Rex: Where are you finding $350 fares to Brussels? I am trying to make arrangements for a trip to Belgium in May and all I am seeing (that is available) is $900+ round-trip fares. I have checked all the travel sites repeatedly. Since I have to go to Scotland for a wedding first, I would consider flying to London as well. Any advise would be appreciated.
