Not sure if meant for me but I’ll address the cost on flight. Got in on a $280 RT flight on Swiss from SFO-Rome for April 2019. I typically only bring a carry-on so not an issue for me. Some of the cheapest tickets don’t allow check-in baggage and some airlines do have a limit on weight for carry-ons (Singapore, Lufthansa, Swiss all have about 18 lbs limit). Never had to pay for other charges so the cost of flight was how much I paid. Did almost 2 weeks in Rome and Amalfi Coast and our cost per person was less than $1,500 all in (there were 4 of us to divvy up rental car, hotels, and airbnb).
