.
As we look ahead to 2023, in spite of economic headwinds, there's some good news in terms of new and resuming airline routes to some of our favorite destinations. We're especially keen on routes that aren't well served, where a new route either is the first connection between destinations or brings competition to a route previously monopolized by another carrier.

3 flights per week, operating on Sundays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
.
2. United: San Francisco SFO to Rome FCO, May 25-October 27, 2023
