MILAN. The summer of crazy prices produces record after record. Sifting through the rates for air flights, the ranking of the most expensive flights in the world has popped up: in August the cost of a plane ticket to the most remote places in the world can exceed 30 thousand euros, practically the price of a car of medium engine capacity or a garage in the city. This was stated by Codacons, which in the light of the phenomenon of expensive flights has carried out a study aimed at identifying which are currently the most expensive routes in the world starting from Italy.
Assuming that you embark at Fiumicino international airport to make a round trip in August, the most expensive ticket is the one for the Port Vila airport, located in the Republic of Vanuatu in Oceania. Few dates are available, and if you leave on August 5th and return on August 26th, the fastest flight with 2 stopovers costs 16,090 euros. However, by changing the dates (August 20-26) and depending on the carrier and the connections chosen, the ticket price reaches a record 30,287 euros.
In second place in the ranking of the most expensive flights in the world is Apia, in the Samoa Islands in Polynesia: departing on August 14 and returning on August 20, you get to spend, again depending on the company chosen and the connections, up to 23,362 euros for a flight with two stopovers.
In third place we find the Fiji Islands, where a ticket from Fiumicino to Suva airport costs (departing on August 14th and returning on August 21st) 15,185 euros if you choose the fastest option (about 30 hours of flight each way), but can reach the figure of 19,490 euros. Guadalcanal, in the archipelago of the Solomon Islands, follows shortly after, with flight fares reaching 18,797 euros.
Up to €16,862 is needed to fly to Wellington (New Zealand), €15,902 to Port Moresby (Papua New Guinea) and €14,498 to Darwin (Australia).
In the ranking of golden destinations there is no shortage of places also popular with Italian holidaymakers such as Santiago de los Caballeros (Dominican Republic): 8,537 euros. Or George Town (Bahamas) to be reached for the modest sum of 10,357 euros.
