Care and re-routing when leaving Rome
Delayed at the gate: meals, refreshments and two calls or e-mails from 2 h of delay on flights up to 1,500 km, 3 h up to 3,500 km (and on every intra-EU flight over 1,500 km), 4 h beyond — plus a hotel and transport when the departure moves to the next day. Owed whatever the cause.
Cancelled or denied boarding: the choice between a refund of the unused ticket within 7 days and re-routing to your destination at the earliest opportunity or on a later date of your choosing, with care while you wait.
Delayed 5 h or more: you may give up the journey and take a full refund of the unused ticket, with a return flight to your departure point if the trip has lost its purpose.
Rome Fiumicino is exposed to Italian national transport strikes, which are announced in advance and usually guarantee a minimum service. The airline must show the strike affected your flight; Italian courts commonly treat two years as the safe deadline.

Cosa è successo al suo volo?
Fiumicino-specific issues
Fiumicino is ITA Airways’ hub and a large base for Ryanair, Vueling, Wizz Air and easyJet. Italian ATC and airport strikes are announced in advance — usually for a few hours on a given day — and airlines cancel around them. A third-party strike is generally extraordinary, but the airline must still re-route you at the earliest opportunity and provide care; a cancellation days in advance to “protect” the schedule is compensable if the strike did not in fact affect your flight.
On a single ITA booking, the delay is measured at your final destination: a late Milan–Rome sector that costs you the New York connection is a €600 case.
