Anyone have any idea on how long it will take to get from a a hotel near the Forum to the Fiumicino airport? We will probably be using a limo service. Grazie!

What time of day? We did taxi from close to Termini to FCO at 0630, 10 days ago, in under 40 minutes.

We are leaving on a Saturday and need to be at the airport by about 8 am - I'm assuming we should be there 3 hours before our plane departs. Thanks.

Barb, At that time in the morning it can be done in 35 minutes.

Thank you! I will plan on leaving by 7:30 am at the latest. Different members of our group will be leaving on different days. One has an 11 am flight on a Sunday morning - I'm assuming that leaving by 7:30 am for that one will also work just fine. However, some of us will be leaving on a Tuesday morning. Some of us will be flying to Sicily at 11 am; others will be flying back to the USA on an 11 am flight. Any different recommendations for flying out on a Tuesday? Thanks.

Traffic on Saturday and Sunday will be far less than on Tuesday. I would allow for a little more time on Tuesday. If you're at the Forum area, they will probably take you to FCO on Via Cristiforo Colombo, and you will be going opposite the traffic flow as that's a "separated road." I think the time frames everyone has given you are correct - Good luck!
Ciao,
