What's the cheapest month to fly to Rome?

Brokepackr's data shows January-March and November offer the best fares to Rome. Avoid Easter week and summer when prices spike 30-50% and crowds overwhelm the historic center.

How much does 30 days in Rome cost?

Brokepackr's Cost Index estimates $1,900-2,400 USD for 30 days in Rome. Italy is pricier than Eastern Europe but pizza slices ($2-3) and house wine keep food costs reasonable.

Should I fly into Fiumicino or Ciampino?

Brokepackr recommends Ciampino (CIA) for budget carriers but Fiumicino (FCO) for convenience — faster train to city center. Ciampino saves $50-100 on flights but adds 20 mins to your transfer.
