Fare seasonality

When this route gets cheap.

Fares bottom out in December around $527 and peak in July near $1,046, 98% dearer, across the 8 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 12.5 hours outbound, on a 47-night trip — ticketed under Air China, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $527 for 8,967 km each way, that works out to about $29 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $44 per 1,000 km that long-haul fares on this board typically run. Across the 30 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Seoul, this fare ranks 6th — 15% above the $458 from Istanbul. It is also the 2nd cheapest of the 38 routes of similar length we watch out of Rome. The best time to be in Seoul: Apr–May · Sep–Oct.

Good to know

ROM → SEL, answered.

Is $527 a good price for Rome to Seoul?

Yes — the seasonal median for this route is around $810 round-trip. At $527 you're 35% below that, which we rate great for this route.

What is the cheapest month to fly from Rome to Seoul?

Across 8 months of cached-fare history, Dec comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Seoul are Apr–May · Sep–Oct — when those overlap, that's your window.

How far in advance should I book ROM → Seoul?

We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 8 months of cached fares, Dec comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.

Are there nonstop flights from Rome to Seoul?

The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Air China. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.

Are these prices guaranteed?

No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
