The airline has also confirmed it will operate the service for a third year, with flights for 2024 going on sale in early July.
Qantas International CEO Cameron Wallace said the airline was delighted to fly Australians directly to Rome for another summer in Europe.3
“Our Perth-Rome route was one of the most popular on our international network last year and bookings indicate it will be again,” Wallace commented.
Qantas customers can connect from Rome to 16 destinations in Europe, including Geneva, Nice and Madrid, and 14 destinations in Italy. A “circle fare” also allows travelers to fly to Rome and return to Australia from London on the same ticket.
