Book flights from Perth to Rome with Qatar Airways

Arrive in the Eternal City after a journey that is as memorable as this extraordinary destination, courtesy of luxury flights from Perth to Rome with Qatar Airways. Reach the stunning Italian capital ready to explore its fascinating history or enjoy its many luxury restaurants and hotels, and let our award-winning cabin crew ensure your journey is smooth and stress-free from start to finish.

Discover why Rome is known as the Eternal City, as you walk its streets and encounter historical monument after historical monument. Rome’s rich history gives it its remarkable character; home to some of the world’s most stunning artworks and filled with the artefacts of one of the world’s greatest empires. Whilst this amazing destination revels in the past, Rome is a modern and cosmopolitan city and, as the capital of Italy, is a key commercial and financial hub – specialising in industries as diverse as tourism and fashion.

Perth Airport, Australia’s fourth busiest airport, serves the west of the continent and links passengers to destinations all over the world.

Qatar Airways flights from Perth regularly travel to Doha, making this a convenient departure point for both business and leisure travellers.

The typically laid-back Australian nature makes this a very friendly airport too, with helpful staff available throughout.

Parking and transportation

Perth Airport is very business-focused, providing plenty of parking and easy transportation to, and from, the city of Perth for business users.

Long-term parking is just 10 minutes away from the International Terminal 1, and a shuttle bus runs every few minutes from the parking area to the terminal. Both short and long-term parking areas are patrolled by 24-hour security.

The Perth Airport Connect shuttle bus runs from East Perth train station, and other locations in the city, to Terminal 3. International travellers can then connect with a shuttle bus service to take them to Terminal 1. Covered taxi ranks are located outside the main entrance to the terminal.

Arriving in Perth

Qatar Airways flights from Perth leave from International Terminal 1. The terminal has a number of lounges (some of which are airline-specific). Security is tight in Australia, so ensure that you do not have any banned items in your handbags and carry-on luggage to avoid delays.

Facilities and amenities

Wi-Fi is available throughout Terminal 1 (note that there may be some not-spots in areas close to ongoing construction). There are a number of retail outlets in Terminal 1, including duty-free shops  and others that offer Australian goods – ideal for buying last-minute souvenirs.

A food court provides passengers with a selection of light bites, snacks, drinks and substantial meals with an international flavour.

If you want to experience everything that Rome has to offer but want a little bit of individuality thrown into the mix, book a flight to Fiumicino with Qatar Airways and discover an often-overlooked part of this beautiful region. Originally a simple fishing village just a few miles from the historic capital, Fiumicino is today an attractive destination loved by locals and travellers in the know.

A much more tranquil and sedate pace of life lulls you into a relaxed state of mind, and if you want the vibrancy and energy of Rome then it’s only a short drive away. But there is plenty in this pretty location to keep you interested and amused.

Tourist attractions

The biggest attraction in the area is the ancient Roman settlement of Ostia Antica, the historic ancestor of the modern town. This bay area at the mouth of the Tiger river is picturesque and a haven for wildlife, making it a serene change from the usual tourist destinations.

One of the more unusual attractions is a small mud volcano that popped into existence on the Coccia di Morto roundabout in 2013! Although currently dormant, local geologists (and road cleaners) are keeping a careful eye on it just in case it becomes active again.

Shopping in Fiumicino is surprisingly good, and if you don’t want to fight through the crowds in nearby Rome then there is plenty to buy in the new Malo Moda mall or the smaller boutiques in the town itself. The main ingredient to any trip to Fiumicino is relaxation – a visit to this location is a welcome change from the frenetic pace of life in nearby Rome.
