Rome benefits from Europe's extensive rail network. For destinations under 800 km, high-speed trains like the Eurostar, TGV, or ICE often beat flying when you factor in city-center departures and no airport security queues.

All distances shown are straight-line (great-circle) distances. Actual road distances are typically 20–40% longer. Flight times assume 800 km/h cruising speed with 30 minutes for takeoff and landing. For the most accurate door-to-door estimates, add 2–3 hours for airport procedures on each end.
