Rome: The Eternal City

During the high School years I read a lot about the Roman Empire that once flourished in the eternal city of Italy, Rome. Fortunately, this time I got an opportunity to visit Rome with my cousin to the most fascinating city, of the world. In the evening I sat down with the yellow pages to get low fares for the air flights that connect United States to Rome. After making a call to few travel companies I finally booked the business class tickets with Continental Airlines, which were offering quite reasonable flight deals to Rome.

My cousin suggested that the best way to make preparations for Rome travel was to know a little more about the city. While I was searching for the cities best attractions, I came across many travel companies that were offering low priced or cheap business class flights to Rome. Also there were several sites that were advertising the international airlines to Rome. After discussing about the major visiting attractions of the city we both packed our stuffs and got ready to explore the city.

Before setting our journey I made a point to recheck the air plane tickets to Rome. While sitting in my business class seat I read a lot about the beautiful city of Rome from the travel book, which was provided by the business class airlines. The most amazing thing about Romans was that apart from feeling proud they also have an unbound passion for Rome. My cousin, Michal gets along with strangers very quickly. This time also while onboard she could easily get along the airhostess in the business flight.

The airhostess familiarized her with the local lingo of Rome. She even told that the airline often offered inexpensive flight tickets to Rome. Our flight landed in the evening and we immediately went to the hotel where our travel consultant made reservation for us. On our way Michal shared about the talks she had with the airhostess. The airhostess told her about the business class discounts that the airlines offered to other European cities. While Michal was busy describing her experience with the new friend, I really enjoyed the shimmering lights of the market streets.

The next day we went to the Roman Forum and its neighboring places and were quite overwhelmed to see the magnificent site. Along with the long run polished Vatican museum we also strolled around the sanctuary of St. Peter’s Basilica. The city also possessed the treasure of marvelous churches where every church was unique in itself. After spending the quality time in sightseeing we went to dine at a nearby restaurant that offered delicious Italian food.

Once we were through with our dinner, we returned back to the hotel and packed our stuffs for home. Although our trip was quite small yet we learnt a lot about the city. Despite the abundant availability of travel agents, Fare Buzz the leading Travel Company has been providing easy and best solutions that include reasonable fares for business class flights to all its clients.
