FAQs for booking flights from Ottawa to Rome

  • How can I fly from Ottawa to Rome?

    Unfortunately, there are currently no direct flights between Ottawa and either of Rome’s airports. Most of the flights between these two destinations have one layover, and sometimes you will find flights with two layovers.

  • What are some common layover cities on the route from Ottawa to Rome?

    The layover(s) you have on your way from Ottawa to Rome will depend largely on the airline you’re flying with. For example, Air Canada usually has a layover in either Montreal (YUL) or Toronto (YYZ), Lufthansa has a layover in Montreal (YUL), and Air Transat has a layover in Toronto (YYZ). If your flight has two layovers, it’s likely that they will be at YUL and YYZ.

  • What documents do I need to fly from Ottawa to Rome?

    Canadian citizens flying to Italy will need their valid passport in order to board their flight. You don’t need a visa, as long as your planned stay is for 90 days or fewer. You might be asked to show your return airline ticket at customs in Rome.

  • What can I do to make my trip from Ottawa to Rome more sustainable?

    There are several things you can do to make your flight as eco-friendly as possible. First, use public transportation to get to YOW and after you land at FCO or CIA. Next, try to book a flight that has the fewest layovers possible—in this case, one layover. This will cut down on the number of takeoffs and landings and, therefore, conserve fuel. Try to book with Air Canada, as it’s one of Canada’s most sustainable airlines. Finally, pack light in order to reduce the weight on the plane; that way, the plane will burn less fuel.

    In the last 5 days, the lowest price for a flight from Ottawa to Rome was $420 for a one-way ticket and $628 for a round-trip.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from Ottawa to Rome?

KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from Ottawa to Rome

  • Ottawa is served by Ottawa International Airport (YOW), a hub for Porter Airlines and Zoom Airlines. YOW also provides access to other cities nearby, such as Gatineau and Smiths Falls.
  • Rome is served by two main airports: Rome Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci Airport (FCO) and Rome-Ciampino International Airport (CIA). FCO, the bigger of the two airports, serves more international flights than CIA, so it's likely that FCO will be your arrival airport after a layover or two. Flights from YOW to CIA with layovers are also available, but usually are more expensive and take more time.
  • If you’re looking for the cheapest flights to Rome from Ottawa, your flight will probably have one or two layovers and will be operated by Air Transat or Porter Airlines. If you’re looking for the cheapest possible deals, you could also choose a cheaper flight-and-bus combination to bring you to your final destination in Rome.
  • If you’re bringing a large amount of baggage to Rome from Ottawa, you may want to consider upgrading your seat class, especially if you’re flying on a low-cost airline. Many budget airlines only allow one carry-on item and require extra payment for any additional carry-on or checked baggage. Upgrading your seat affords you additional free carry-on baggage, usually for a lower cost than if you added extra bags to your economy-class seat.
  • If you have an early-morning flight out of YOW, consider booking a hotel nearby for the night before, so that you can skip the stressful morning drive to the airport. Currently there are plans to construct a hotel onsite at the airport, but for now you should book a hotel nearby that offers free shuttle service, like the Hilton Garden Inn Ottawa Airport.

Seats! The eternal problem in economy. They are like stones!!

Everything is good except the seats are tightened no rooms for the legs,

The flight crew was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Also the seats were comfortable and roomier than many other airlines.

Middle seats SUCK!!!! I paid more money than I should have because of your terrible site Kayak.com. I'll try to use your competitors going forward. I am so disappointed you would play off business class.com as business class seats

The boarding was efficient. The entertainment system was a bit unstable but Air France has a good selection of movies.

They lost my bag and I still haven’t received it yet

They lost my bag and I still have not received it

Communication on the delay, rebooking and how to get a hotel was poor. Mails, airport check-in and transfer desk said different things.

Not consistent with the food quality (I mean taste not freshness)

Food was really mediocre for premium economy in comparison to other airlines… the crew was nowhere to be found… 14 hour flight…

Flight was oversold. Seats assigned to multiple passengers. Delay 1 hour to sort out.

Good but I don’t received my bags yet is been 5days still no update

Boarding is always chaotic. Delay was over 2 hours while inside plane . Crew not very friendly

Congested seating area Toronto Poor announcements Terrible food in flight Limited entertainment options

The flight was good. My luggage didn’t land with me when I arrived in Columbus. So grateful I was able to get my luggage back within the 2 hours😍👍.

Comfortable seats with good leg room. But not screens on seat backs.

I was rescheduled when I missed my flight due to border clearance issue

Flight was delayed twice which made our arrival extremely late (actually into next day). Not an easy travel. But when we requested assistance for boarding we were really impressed with how they helped us! Strongly praise their assistance.

It was out first time flying Air Canada and it was ok, comfort-wise. I hope airlines are able to get a quiet room installed for young children flying. Screaming and crying the whole time in business class is quite unfortunate. That was the only thing that really messed up the experience.

Received an email a few hours before boarding that wifi and seatback entertainment would not be available. There was no explanation for this. We were served 1 x 20 gram granola bar as a snack (not even a full granola bar) which was really embarrassing. The crew was lovely (none of this was their fault) and the flight was successful, but the aircraft itself was falling apart on the inside. Overhead comfort control panels were worn and some were hanging out and non functional, This aircraft needs to be upgraded.

Never made it to Lufthansa because of Air Canadas negligence.

I never got to Lufthansa because of Air Canadas negligence.

The flight got delayed 3 hours from Montreal and we missed our connecting flight so it was a long journey

The service and food was excellent. The remote control for entertainment did not function properly.

All was good, except my USB charging did not work, so my phone got drained and I could not charge it. Same happened to my neighbour.

A bit more space? Not practical, I know. I felt squished in but part of that could have been the man sitting next to me.

The plane (Mitsubishi CRJ) felt old, creaking and not very new. The crew was okay. Hot water provision was broken so hot beverages could't be served.

Not bad. We had preboarding tickets but the preboarding was badly managed. We lined up behind all the parents with little kids etc and when we got to the front of the line the attendant deliberately turned away from us and ignored us until I asked to be allowed to go to the gate. She started telling us that we had to wait until I told her we had preboarding then she let us through.

Everything well done and customer oriented There entertainment system is difficult to navigate

Boarding and flight update was fantastic as I experienced about a 10-15 delayed for both flights. The food served onboard was great; the service of the flight attendants was excellent.
