Exciting news for travelers in the Midwest! ITA Airways, Italy's flagship carrier, has just introduced a new nonstop flight service connecting Chicago to Rome, enhancing travel options for both leisure and business passengers!

This new route, launched on Sunday, now operates six times a week from Chicago's O'Hare International Airport to Rome's Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport, with plans to increase to daily flights in June.
The flight duration from the Windy City to the City of Seven Hills is approximately 9 hours and 20 minutes, departing Chicago at 3:00 p.m. and arriving in Rome at 7:20 a.m. the following morning.
This service is offered on the state-of-the-art Airbus A330neo aircraft, featuring three cabin classes: Business, Premium Economy, and Economy, ensuring a comfortable and stylish journey across the Atlantic.
Tickets for these flights are now available for purchase directly through ITA Airways' website. This addition marks ITA Airways' seventh destination in North America, signifying a significant expansion of their intercontinental network and strengthening their presence in the United States, which remains the airline's primary international market.
As Emiliana Limosani, ITA Airways' Chief Commercial Officer, highlighted, "This new destination... consolidates our expansion towards the United States, which is the first international market for our company."
Moreover, ITA Airways is a proud member of the SkyTeam Alliance, allowing passengers to earn or redeem miles with other member airlines, including Delta.
This is particularly notable as Chicago's O'Hare is a major hub for United Airlines, part of the Star Alliance network, and offers multiple flights to Italy.
The launch of this new service by ITA Airways coincides with a growing interest in Italy as a top destination for summer travel. Google Flight data recently ranked Rome among the top five most popular summer destinations for 2024.
Additionally, American Airlines has also expanded its service to Italy, providing daily flights from Chicago to Rome this summer.
Travelers flying with ITA will experience an immediate immersion into Italian culture, from the aircraft's interior designed by renowned car designer Walter De Silva to the stylish crew uniforms created by the iconic Italian fashion house Brunello Cucinelli. The in-flight menu, crafted by celebrated Italian chefs, promises to be a culinary delight.
