About this route
London to Rome flights
London to Rome has 10+ daily departures from Heathrow and Gatwick, serving both business travellers and the enormous tourist market. The 2-hour 30-minute flight and 1-hour timezone difference make arrival times straightforward to predict.
Rome Fiumicino (FCO) is the main international airport, about 30 km southwest of the city centre. The Leonardo Express train runs every 15 minutes to Roma Termini station (32 minutes, non-stop). From landing to exit at Fiumicino is typically 20-30 minutes for EU passport holders using e-gates, longer for non-EU travellers who queue for manual checks.
Some Ryanair flights use Rome Ciampino (CIA), a smaller airport closer to the city but with more limited transport links. Always confirm which Rome airport is on the booking. Ciampino has a bus service to Termini station taking about 40 minutes.
ITA Airways (the successor to Alitalia) operates from Fiumicino Terminal 1. BA uses Terminal 3. Getting between terminals requires the internal shuttle, so pickup drivers should confirm the terminal before parking. Fiumicino's road access via the Roma-Fiumicino motorway can be congested during rush hours.
