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.

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.

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…

I don’t like that an equipment change caused my seat to change from 23A to 44A. The boarding was also delayed. The crew were excellent, however and very attentive. The food was not bad.

Worst airlines either. First leg was delayed because of crew not available. My connection was missed so they booked me automatically the next day! But, impossible to get anyone on site, web site does not let me access my reservation anymore, confirmed by useless agents over the phone. My 2-leg trip with part in business class arriving at 4:10pm ends up in an awful 3-leg arriving at 9pm the next day with no way to even choose the seats and of course at the very end of the plane. I can understand problems arrive but the way Air France handle it is just unacceptable. You are on your own. Apparently getting you to your destination is the only thing they consider their duty. The customer experience and fatigue is none of their concern. And I have a status with them. I will reconsider my priorities when flying with Air France and encourage everyone to do the same.

Our flight crew were terrific. And they handle a difficult passenger with finesse.

Excellent, Lima to Paris. But Paris to Amsterdam, delayed, missed my flight and KLM treated its missed flights passengers very badly, terribly bad. No hotel accommodation given. Passengers were told to find their own hotel accommodation and claim at reasonable rate and left the booth and literally with armed Police Officers listening to passengers complains. For three hours, after moving by Uber from hotel to hotel and calling and booking online, no hotel was available. I had to return to the airport and seat/sleep on the benches, suffering the cold, and rats running around until my new allocated flight the next day. It was the most terrible KLM treatment even seen and being a Business Class passenger. Still mentally suffering to date as a result.

3 hour delay but out of their control. App said I get vouchers but when I applied for them, they were nowhere to be found in my account

I don't understand the concept of paying to get your personal luggage onboard and then asked to check it in.... either sell the space or don't, its a hassle to carry those all through the airport just to make a check in at the last minute.

The food was great and the service and attitude was amazing!!

The crew from Toronto Santiago (and the other way) weren't nice people. They seemed angry. Other flights with Air Canada had much nicer crews. Bathrooms always had sticky floors. Yuck!

No entertainment system. Paid extra for wider seats but not worth the cost. Flight left a little late and arrived early.

We boarded and then deboarded the plane after being told it needed something done that couldn't be fixed. Sent notice about 3h flight delay, then they clawed it back and we were 1h delayed. Very poor communication.

Was notified on a timely manner of any changes, if any, of the flight schedules.

My seat was covered in vomit and I will be reaching out to Air Canada

We were happy with the service and cost of checking a bag

It's kindof ridiculous that your system is even asking me about this since my flight was canceled and I wasn't rescheduled.

3 hr delay at the gate while they were doing maintenance. Next time, do not board passengers while maintenance is being performed

Digital check in is very poor with air canada compaired to other airlines

Flight was delayed 3 times. My luggage was sent to Saskatoon instead of Casablanca - airline got it sorted out in two days. Received $45 in meal vouchers to use in the airport.
