ITA Airways' non-Schengen lounge in Terminal 3, the former Alitalia space rebranded.
The ITA Airways Piazza di Spagna lounge sits in Rome Fiumicino's Terminal 3, Pier E, and welcomes ITA Airways business class passengers and Volare Premium and Executive members travelling outside Europe's Schengen zone. The space has history: it originally opened as an Alitalia lounge in June 2018 before closing in 2021 with the demise of the old Italian carrier, and Italy's new flag carrier ITA Airways took it over and rebranded it in early 2022. Today it serves as ITA's non-Schengen lounge at FCO, with the buffet, bar, Wi-Fi and seating you'd expect from a flag-carrier lounge. If you're flying ITA in business class or hold elite Volare status on a non-Schengen route, this is your lounge in Terminal 3.
