London to Rome, GBP 100?
 

I've been looking at prices for a ticket from London to Rome. I prefer to fly from LHR, and I prefer BA, althoungh niether is essential. Is GBP 100 a good price for a return flight LHR to FCO?

If not, what would be a good price for a return flight from London to Rome?

Thanks in advance.

Does that price include taxes and fees? If so, I think that is a good price.

I know you prefer LHR, FCO, and BA, but I will nonetheless mention I had a perfectly fine experience flying EasyJet from CIA to LGW.

WillTravel, thanks for recommending Easyjet. I'll look at their prices.

The BA flight (GBP100) does include taxes. Sorry I didn't mention this in my original post.

Coincidently last night I was looking up Rome/London on Easyjet in October - quoted as €35 one way. It would be more expensive the other way (higher UK taxes).

The other thing to be aware of is luggage weight allowance and price of checking in a bag.

I have flown to Italy several times this year, and 100GBP is not a bad price if you consider more luggage allowance, no checkin baggage fee and on board drink/snack. You may save £10 or so using Easyjet or Ryanair.

What are your travel dates? Are they flexible? The prices vary so much depending on which days you fly, and how far in advance you book the tickets. I just checked my favorite airline indexing site (www.harefares.com) to see which airlines fly your route. I found that Alitalia has a return flight from June 20 to July 10 for $200 USD (taxes included). There are also 5 or 6 other airlines listed if you don't mind flying out of Stansted or Gatwick instead of Heathrow.

I think GBP100 including taxes/charges on BA LHR-FCO is a great fare. I'd rather avoid flying on Alitalia given the airline's ongoing financial woes.
