I have got to be doing something wrong...I checked with Italia Airlines on prices from Amsterdam to Florence (for 2 adults), and got a price of over $2000 for one-way, and a bit over $900 for round-trip. Both seem way out of line, but I've never traveled by train in Europe, so really don't have a clue.
Help is greatly appreciated; thanks!
Try Meridiana airlines. Amsterdam to Florence is about 89 euros one way ecomomy. www.meridiana.it
I have been having a hard time finding a flight from Amsterdam. I have never heard of them but they offer the flight I need at E29. Thanks for the tip.
