Flights to/from Rome and Venice
My husband and I would like to travel to Italy in March 2007, visiting Rome, Florence & Venice. I really don't care which city we fly into and which city we head home from (whatever is least expensive). If I start my trip in Rome I'd prefer not to have to return to Rome just to fly home. I have just begun to research flights and admit that I haven't done a lot of it. But what I've found so far is a round trip ticket to/from Rome costs about $700 roundtrip per person. And a one way to Rome (or one way from Venice) would cost so much more - $1100 each way per person. Is that right? Am I doing something wrong?

kim-
What you need to do is book an open-jaw ticket (ie, fly into one city and leave from another). It's still considered roundtrip, instead of 2 one-way ticket. Open-jaws usually run just a little more than a regular R/T ticket, sometimes the same price.
When you're on the airline website, just click in "multi-city" when you look for the tickets.

FYI- I usually book open jaw (If,for instance you are on the Orbitz website,click on expanded options,then multi-city,)These fares have never been more expensive than single destination round-trips,and frequently they've been cheaper.
