On-Board Experience

You can pick Economy and Business Class for your Singapore flight to Rome. Each has perks, though the experience can vary slightly between airlines. Here’s a general idea of what you can expect from each.

1. Seating Comfort

In Economy, the seats are all right but can feel cramped after a while. You’ll get decent legroom, but a stretch now and then wouldn’t hurt. Over in Business, you’re in for a treat with spacious seats that turn into fully flat beds, so you can kick back and catch some zzz.

2. Amenities

In Economy, you’ll get the basics like blankets, pillows, and headphones—nothing too fancy, just practical. Business Class uses high-quality blankets, plush pillows, premium toiletries, and even pyjamas, making your flight more luxurious.

3. Meals

Economy meals are generally straightforward, with a few choices and an introductory presentation. Conversely, Business Class offers a gourmet experience with high-quality dishes served on fine china. Plus, you’ll have a great selection of wines and other beverages to sip on.

4. Entertainment

Economy offers a solid lineup of movies, TV shows, and music on personal screens or shared monitors, with essential headphones. In business, you’ll enjoy more giant screens, a better selection of entertainment, noise-cancelling headphones, and, sometimes, Wi-Fi to keep you connected.

Arrival in Rome

Well done! After over half a day experiencing a flight from Singapore to Rome, you’re touching down at Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci Airport. But hold up—the journey’s not quite over yet. Immigration, customs, and waiting for your bags before you can carry on.

It can be a bit much, but with this guide, you’ll sail through.

If you’ve bought items to pack in your checked luggage, request your VAT refund before you check in your bags. You’ll need to go to the Customs Office in the Departures area of either Terminal 1, Terminal 3, Boarding Area E, or Boarding Area A.
If your VAT refund involves invoices from Global Blue, Planet, or Tax Refund (issued in Italy), you need to visit their specific offices.
Once you’re at the correct office, submit your VAT refund request. Make sure you have your invoices, passport, and the goods you’ve purchased with you.
After handling your VAT refund, you can continue with check-in and security as usual.
Are you looking to speed things up at security? For just SGD 10.18, you can take advantage of the Fast Track service, which will have you on your way in no time.
When it’s time to leave the airport, you have four choices to get where you’re going: train, bus, taxi, or a private car. Just go with whatever suits your style and budget.
