I have attempted to identify and list low cost airlines with flights out of and into Italy. Some of these airlines are better known than others, e.g., Air Berlin, Ryanair. There are many inexpensive air fares to many locations outside of Italy. However, you should be aware that some of these low cost airlines will charge you for luggage, even if you have only one bag!
