Flying Paris to Rome
 
Are there any other cheap airlines who fly that route besides Ryan Air? I've checked Easy Jet and it doesn't look like they fly it. Thanks.

Hi,

Have you looked at www.whichbudget.com?

Thank you. Yes, all they showed is Ryan Air.

Would you happen to know: Does Ryan Air book up? For instance, should I be buying tickets for June now, or waiting?

Also, is it possible they will add any additional flights on that route as the two times offered now are tough (early and really late). Thank you again.

wliwl - RyanAir often book up on their popular flights. Hardly surprising at their prices ...

If you want a good price you should book today.

They only sell a small percentage of their seats at the lead-in price.
Their fares then rise in stages and get progressively dearer the longer you wait.
[If you wait till June their last seats could be similar to BA or Air France scheduled fares].

If you don't like their flight times, you could as an alternative fly EasyJet Paris (Orly) to NAPLES (dep. 12.45), - and take a 2-hour train ride from there to Rome.

Hope this helps ...

Steve

Thanks Steve, Yes that helps a ton. How did people ever plan trips before the internet?!!

Before the internet we were at the mercy of the travel's agents.

We are flying from Paris to Florence on City Jet which is operated by Air France. I don't know if they fly into Rome, but you could check with Air France. We bought our tickets through Delta as part of a RT ticket to Florence from JFK, so I don't know how expensive they are.
