Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Fiumicino - Leonardo da Vinci Intl. Airport (FCO) to Santos Dumont Airport (SDU) last minute?
When it comes to booking your flights, being prepared pays dividends. While you could find a deal on a FCO to SDU flight at the last minute, fares usually don't get cheaper as the departure date nears. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the sweet spot to book a domestic flight is between 28 – 35 days in advance. For international flights it's three to four months.
