Cheap flights to Italy
Cheap flights to Italy put you down in very different places. Rome is the capital and the usual first stop, Milan is the business hub of the north, and Venice, Florence and Pisa cover the art cities and Tuscany. Naples, Catania, Palermo and Bari open up the south and the islands, while Bologna, Verona and Turin suit rail trips, lakes and the Alps. Pick the airport that matches the trip you have in mind, not just the fare.

Rome works for a first trip: the capital, the old centre and the rail lines south. Milan is the pick for business, fashion and day trips into the north. Venice and Florence are for art and short breaks, Pisa for Tuscany and the coast. Naples, Catania and Palermo suit the south and the islands; Bari is the way into Puglia. Bologna sits on the main rail route, Verona and Turin work for lakes, opera and the Alps.

When to go
Summer is the busy stretch for flights to Italy, when the coast and the islands fill up, and the winter holidays pull crowds to the art cities. Spring and early autumn are calmer and often easier on the wallet, with mild weather in Rome, Florence and Naples. Winter is quiet outside the holiday weeks, though the Alps around Turin and Verona have their own high season for snow.
