REWARD SEAT FINDER

Rome

119,500 - 182,900 Qantas/Velocity Points, One Way

Rome Reward Seats Are Here 🇮🇹

Rome is calling, so turn your points into an unforgettable European escape. From the Colosseum and Roman Forum to the Vatican and endless plates of pasta, Italy’s capital is packed with history, culture and world class cuisine. Whether it is your first visit or a return trip, Rome is the perfect gateway to explore more of Europe.

We’re showcasing reward seats to Rome from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide using both Qantas and Velocity Points. Options include routes via Asia as well as via the Middle East, with Qantas availability largely tied to Emirates, while Velocity offers more flexibility with options through Singapore. Seats start from 119,500 points, and while flying via the Middle East obviously comes with risks, the flexibility of reward seats makes it easier to change or cancel if the situation doesn’t improve closer to your travel date.

Plus, complete our quick Point Hacks+ survey for your chance to win a $500 Visa gift card!
