I am flying into Milan and was going to try to fly to Rome(wouldn't this be better than taking the train). <BR><BR>Where should I look for a ticket and how much do they usually run?

Try Opodo.com this is the European Orbitz. Looks like it is a one hour flight and will cost about $80 USD

a train ride from milan to rome is both fun and scenic.one drawback is that you need to take a shuttle from the airport to the train station.(45 min. ride)For a plane call alitaia.they seem to have a monopoly on flights in italy.

Personally I rather enjoy sitting in the comfort of a train zipping thru Italian countryside. Eurostar train between Milan-Rome takes 4 hrs, 30 minutes versus flying which I'm guestimating takes about 45 minutes. However you do have to get to airport an hour before departure, and if flying out of Malpensa, another 45 minutes to get from city to the airport (Linate airport is closer). As for cost, 1st class on ES train is 67 Euros and 2nd class, 46 Euros.
