Cheap flights from Bodrum to Rome

The lowest fares on this route usually appear in February, so it is the natural starting point if your dates are flexible. Rome's summer and school holidays tend to lift fares, and December usually does the same around Christmas. Midweek departures are often cheaper than weekend ones, and booking earlier matters most when you want to travel in the busiest months. If February feels too cold for your plans, look at the months either side and compare the dated fares before you commit.

All flights on this route connect, so the first question is how much time and complexity you are willing to add for a lower fare. Ajet, Sun Express and Pegasus are low-cost carriers, while British Airways and Turkish Airlines are full-service airlines. Low-cost tickets often exclude checked baggage, seat selection and changes, and a connection on separate tickets can mean reclaiming and rechecking bags. Full-service fares usually include more, but you still need to check whether the connection is protected and how long the transfer takes. Compare the total journey, not just the first fare you see.

If you arrive late in the day, check the last train or bus before you book, because a cheap evening arrival can mean a taxi or an overnight stay. Rome, Italy's capital, has two airports: Fiumicino is the larger airport farther from the centre, while Ciampino is closer and often used by low-cost carriers. Both have rail and bus links into the city, but the journey time and last departure differ, so match your flight to your accommodation. Watch which terminal you arrive at, especially if you are transferring to another flight or meeting someone.
