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 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.

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.

Forty five minutes late for departure. Staff were pleasant. Food was adequate but not outstanding. Entertainment system was very good, as it usually is on Air France.

Forty five minutes late for departure. Staff were pleasant. Food was adequate but not outstanding. Entertainment system was very good, as it usually is on Air France.

Good. Food items are ok but not really healthy (no protein for the vegetarian option, just a total of 2 gr total) so not fulfilling. Also, no airline is educating passengers to behave and have common sense: let the one sitting by the window pass first, leave toilets clean after use, etc. Humanity is just getting rude and more disgusting by the day and without education or enforced common sense no

The check in was horrible. I stood in line for 1 hour to check in with an Air France ticket. Then I was told I had to go to Delta counter onstead to check in instead. It made no sense.

Generally good. The crew is excellent. The food could be better.

They wanted to close counter although they did not provide the wheelchair requested which ended by going alone to transit security and lost long time and they did not want to wait .

Good aorcraft 777 but Worst food ever Breakfast was a bû’with matonnaise… Staff was nice but invisible most of the flight

Business class in the second leg - CDG-EVN was a disaster.

Everything went smoothly with Air France. There was a delay in departure which seemed to relate to the immigration services being short staffed.

worst experience ever i choose my seat in advance and also have my seat selected in my boarding and the they told me that my seat has been changed without notify me

No bording was given for next trip on same carrier, food was very moderate.

Experienced flight cancelations and delays in 5 days. They seem pretty common to AC. Experienced with one of AC's check-in agents at the counter of a big liar. She lied and acted (yes like acting in a movie) that an early flight was fully booked and refused to rebook me, but my flight was delayed two hours so I could not make my connection. Later, I got help at the gate to switch the early flight (Big thanks to that agent). Ater boading, I found the early flight was only 2/3 full meaning there was almost one vacant seat in a 3-person seater, and multiple empty 3-seaters. AC is wired that it is filled with good and bad employees. BTW, AC employees seem never smile, or they don't know how.

Flight was delayed at least 4 times then once we boarded they found a problem with the plane and we had to de-plane and wait another hour for a different plane. I was an hour late for my performance.

Not much food/snacks. I had just tea and it was so bitter.

My mother, 80years old, had arranged for wheelchair assist to and from the aircraft cabin and in the airport but, no one showed up for her to de-plane. Apart from Air Canada having a reputation of being late for every leg of its flight so nothing was new this time so this time they did worse by not assisting seniors. I guess our whole family is done with this airline

Because we had to drive to Toronto due to delays in Windsor on our return we had a car in Toronto so we had to drive home

The flight crew was extremely accommodating, finding a place for my guitar. Thank you so much! Departure time, however it was delayed almost an hour because the plane was not at our gate on time. We did make up most of that timing flight, however, but it is always annoying to be delayed for that length of time. I was looking forward to the, but, honestly, it was really bad. Overall, however, my first experience with Canada was really good and I would recommend you. Thx.

Seating for almost 3 hours in the plan before aircraft takeoff. Very exhausted .

The bathroom did not have hand soap. That is unacceptable.

I was seated next to someone who was, to be polite, not a small person. I had to press myself against the wall as I had no personal space. Aside from that the crew was wonderful and they got me home safely, which is the most important part of my journey. I am very appreciative to your air crews for the job they have, which isn't easy, and appreciative of the fact that they are professional and courteous. The employees I encountered on my journey, with the few exceptions I mentioned in a previous review, are a credit to Air Canada.

Air Canada had a lot of delays on our flight going back to Seattle. So much inconvenience for a long trip.

Seats were terribly uncomfortable! Couldn’t sleep! I paid for good seats when scheduled with Lufthansa, got crappy mid-section seats on Air Canada!

Cancelled flight, that morning! But got us on an Air Canada flight!

The seats are much too narrow and the arm rests are hard and awkwardly high, resulting in shoulder cramps. I am an average sized person ( definitely not overweight). The seats are a similar size to car seats with the added discomfort of incorporating hard plastic arm rests, that force average height individuals (I'm 5 ft 7 (f)) to hold their arms uncomfortably for several hours. The seats are much too close to the ones in front and behind making it extremely difficult to allow fellow passengers to get out, especially when the seat in front is declined. The leg room also necessitates knees banging into passengers backs for the entire flight. This used to be a quality airline who now offer mediocre service for premium cost, coupled with charging exorbitant prices for basic needs, like a seat, or luggage. Blatant and unabashed gouging of clients.

Efficient boarding. Good flight but seats were quite uncomfortable considering we'd already been sitting on two flights, total 13 hours or so. Would have liked to have prices on the menu of amenities on the plane. We could have used more water. Restrooms and nonalcoholic beverages at no extra cost, not much else. I realize these were discount tickets, and the airline has to break even, so I can't say we were expecting amenities to be plentiful. Still, it's nice with long flights to discover a few. Very pleasant crew though.

boarding needs to be streamlined load the back of the plane first

Try to humanize onboarding and take AI out. It's embarrassing and useless

no kiosks to check in with- it’s 2024!!! the flight was so hot and uncomfortable - not sure if that’s what caused a lady to faint during the flight but i was absolutely miserable.

Hated every minute of it. Delayed for over 10 hours only to have to cancel rental car, car insurance and hotel. Its taken me 3days to get to my final destination when it should have only taken 12-14 hours. Very unhappy with Lufthansa.

Air Canada from Edmonton to Toronto was disappointing but Lufthansa from Toronto to Frankfurt was excellent.

I ended up buying (for $340) "extra space" seats because I my flying partner was given a STY boarding pass, leading me to conclude that she was on standby and that we had to buy seats on the flight. I later learned that the flight was not sold out and that we could have gotten on as usual. To be honest, I felt swindled.
