Flight Catania to US, connection in Rome

We booked the first flight available (6AM) out of Catania on ITA, connecting in Rome. We have a ~3 hour layover in Rome before departing for the US. All on one ticket - we should be okay, yes? (Unless our flight is delayed, etc). We usually stay in Rome overnight so my better half is worried. And he’s not the worrier!

I think you’re fine. A couple of years ago I had Catania - Rome and then Rome - Miami, all in one ticket, with a 1 hour 55 minute layover in Rome (just checked the layover time), and it was fine.

Thanks Marco! Same leg we’re doing - we could have left Catania at 7AM but thought it was better to take the earlier flight.

While no one can predict what is going to happen on that day.....since it is on one ticket...if for some reason you miss the connection, the airline is responsible for getting you on the next available flight home for no additional charge. In fact, they may have to foot the bill for food and even a hotel room if they can't get you out in a reasonable amount of time.
