## About Chicago to Rome

Chicago to Rome takes about 9.5 hours nonstop and roughly 11 to 14 hours with one connection. Nonstop flights between O'Hare and Fiumicino have run mainly in the warmer months, so check the current schedule; at other times you connect. Good connecting hubs include Frankfurt and Munich on Lufthansa, Zurich on SWISS, Paris on Air France, London on British Airways, and New York. With a well-timed connection you sleep on the overnight Atlantic leg and take a short European flight into Rome by midday.

### Booking tips

-   Connect in Munich or Zurich for a compact airport, a short transfer and a late-morning arrival in Rome.
-   Traveling between May and September? Ask about seasonal nonstops from O'Hare before settling on a connection.
-   Avoid tight connections in Paris or London, where changing terminals can take an hour or more.

### What moves the fare

-   Business class to Europe is usually priciest from June to August and around Christmas. April, May, September and October bring lower fares with good weather.
-   Two to four months ahead is a good window for summer travel; for shoulder seasons, four to eight weeks often works. Midweek departures tend to price best.
-   The connection city changes the fare, so your agent compares connections through the main hubs and shows the total travel time for each option.

    > I had an excellent experience finding my business class tickets through BuyBusiness.com. The agent who helped me, Oslo Cooper, was honest, professional, and extremely attentive throughout the entire process. Oslo took the time to understand what I was looking for, answered all my questions, and made sure I was comfortable with my options before moving forward. I really appreciated the personal attention and transparency. It made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I’m very happy with the service I received and would definitely recommend BuyBusiness.com and Oslo Cooper to anyone looking for help with business class travel. Excellent service from start to finish!

    > Den Dunn worked with me to get the best price He planned our return trip from Turkeye with an airline that I had no knowledge about. He assured me that Turkish air was great, which they were. He planned our change of planes in Houston, and it was one of the smoothest transitions I have ever had. There was no long lay over. I will definitely be giving him a call the nest time we travel .
