Return Business Class flights with British Airways, including one connection at London Heathrow, two 32 kg checked bags and the Airbus A350-1000 on the long-haul London–São Paulo sectors.
The Rome–London sectors are scheduled on the Airbus A320, while the London Heathrow–São Paulo sectors are scheduled on the British Airways Airbus A350-1000. Aircraft types and seat configurations can change for operational reasons, so check the latest flight details before paying.
The itinerary was available for approximately €1,952.38 return, with the booking completed directly on the British Airways website. This was approximately €550–€600 cheaper than comparable direct Business Class flights with ITA Airways, with even larger savings possible around peak Carnival travel dates.
This fare combines a highly competitive price with a strong long-haul aircraft, generous baggage and booking directly with the operating airline after accessing the itinerary through Skyscanner.
- Business Class on all sectors
- One connection at London Heathrow
- Airbus A350-1000 on the long-haul flights
- 2 × 32 kg checked baggage included
- Direct British Airways booking management
ITA Airways may offer the convenience of travelling nonstop between Rome and São Paulo, avoiding the London connection.
However, the comparable direct fare was approximately €550–€600 more expensive and could cost even more during popular Carnival dates.
The long-haul journey is scheduled on the British Airways Airbus A350-1000, while the shorter Rome–London sectors use the A320.
- Business Class airport experience
- Premium onboard service
- Two checked bags of up to 32 kg each
- Suitable for longer Brazil trips
- Broad date availability
Many additional date combinations may also be available. Each card opens its corresponding Skyscanner search, where the itinerary can be selected and completed directly with British Airways. Prices may vary slightly by date and availability.
Business Class fares and availability can change at any time. Check the final operating airline, London Heathrow connection, baggage allowance, aircraft type, seat configuration, fare rules, cancellation conditions and total price before paying. Travellers should also confirm any UK transit requirements that apply to their passport.
An exceptional sub-€2,000 Business Class fare from Rome to São Paulo with British Airways, generous baggage, A350-1000 long-haul flights and extensive availability—including dates around Carnival.
A return Business Class fare of approximately €1,952 from Rome to São Paulo is outstanding, particularly because the itinerary can be booked directly with British Airways and includes two checked bags of up to 32 kg each.
The long-haul London–São Paulo sectors are scheduled on the British Airways Airbus A350-1000, while the shorter Rome–London sectors are operated by the Airbus A320. Each direction requires only one connection at London Heathrow.
The price was approximately €550–€600 lower than comparable direct ITA Airways Business Class fares, with potentially even greater savings around peak Carnival travel periods. The main compromise is the additional London connection compared with travelling nonstop from Rome.
A fare of €1,952.38 return is exceptional for Business Class between Italy and Brazil. It was approximately €550–€600 cheaper than comparable direct ITA Airways options.
The key London–São Paulo sectors are scheduled on the Airbus A350-1000, providing a strong modern long-haul Business Class experience. The shorter Rome–London sectors use an A320.
Only one connection is required in each direction, with journey times of approximately 16h 10m. The score is reduced because travelling through London adds time compared with ITA’s nonstop service.
The allowance of 2 × 32 kg checked baggage is excellent and makes the deal particularly attractive for longer Brazil trips, extended stays or travellers carrying additional luggage.
There are many more dates than the examples listed, with options across autumn, winter and spring and particularly valuable availability around the popular Carnival travel period.
The itinerary is accessed through Skyscanner but can be booked directly with British Airways, providing clearer airline support, reservation management and disruption assistance than booking through an intermediary.
A sub-€2,000 Business Class return fare from Rome to Brazil is already impressive. Add booking directly with British Airways, the Airbus A350-1000 on the long-haul sectors, two 32 kg checked bags, broad date availability and options covering peak Carnival travel, and this becomes one of the strongest premium Brazil deals available from Italy. Travellers accept one London connection in exchange for savings of approximately €550–€600 compared with the direct ITA Airways alternative.
Find your hotel in São Paulo
Our sample flight departs Rome on 31 January 2027 and arrives in São Paulo on the morning of 1 February, giving travellers eight nights in the city before the return flight on 9 February.
These dates overlap with the main Carnival period from 5–10 February, yet accommodation prices were still surprisingly competitive when checked. We found many well-rated 3-star and 4-star hotels from approximately €40 per night, offering excellent value for such a popular event period.
Enter 1 February to 9 February 2027 in the Booking.com search box below to compare hotels, apartments and guesthouses. Prices are likely to rise as Carnival approaches, so travellers who find a suitable property with free cancellation may prefer to secure it early.
Hotel prices and availability can change quickly, particularly around major events such as Carnival. Always check the final total, exact location, guest reviews, room conditions, taxes and cancellation policy before booking.
