Ooo…1st class is sooooo worth it on a trans-atlantic flight. Enjoy the chocolate bar…as in…an entire bar of all chocolate delicacies set up just for the 8 of you in 1st class.

I would say, don’t do too much time in Venice…it is beautiful, but you don’t need more than a couple of days. There are so many more beautiful and romantic places to stay that aren’t as tourist hate-y as Venitians.

My FI and I are planning our honeymoon to Italy right now too! Our flights are booked, and we are trying to figure out hotels right now.

How many days are you staying?

We are actually going to Paris for three days first, because my FI really wants to see Paris. Italy is more of my dream honeymoon destination, but now that he’s convinced me, I’m really excited about Paris. And since we used miles too, we are able to fly into Paris, and out of Rome as our main flight. And then we’re taking other one-way flights in between our destinations.

We are planning on:
Paris, Venice, Rome and Sorrento/Positano/Capri.

We really wanted to go to Lago di Como because we heard so much about it, but I’ve heard it can be chilly up there in May. So we didn’t want to lug super warm clothes with us. And we didn’t have time to do it all.

Basically, my FI and I have had such a hard time narrowing it down because there are so many places we want to see. We’ve agreed that we need to find that balance– we don’t want to see just one or two places for five or six days each, but we want to spend more than 24 hours in a location. So instead, we’re doing three days each in:
Paris, Venice, Rome (4 nights), and the Almafi Coast. We haven’t figured out the details of where on the Almafi Coast. Maybe Sorrento, with day trips to Positano and Capri.

And we decided that this will give us a taste of everything, and we’ll have to go back again soon to see it all!!!! ;)
