The Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA) joined representatives from ITA Airways and the Consul General of Italy in Chicago to celebrate the launch of the carrier’s new service from O’Hare International Airport to Rome-Leonardo da Vinci Fiumicino International Airport (FCO) in the Italian capital.

A visit from the Windy City to the City of Seven Hills just got easier. On Sunday, ITA Airways, Italy’s main airline, launched new service connecting Chicago and Rome. The route will initially operate six times a week, and will soon increase to seven times a week in June, the airline shared in a press release. The 9 hour and 20 minute flight will depart Chicago's O'Hare International Airport at 3:00 p.m. and arrives in Rome's Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport at 7:20 a.m. the next morning. The route will operate with three different cabins (Business, Premium Economy, and Economy) on an Airbus A330neo aircraft.

The airline will soon add an extra daily service in April 2024, bringing the total number of weekly frequencies to 31 in the peak of the summer season. This rotation will also be operated with an Airbus A220-100.
