re: Flying from any US City to Italy

OP-since you are changing airlines a few things to be aware of:
1. Southwest will not interline your bags. So you'll have to pick them up at the carousel in whatever US city you're in and head to the ticket counter for the INTL carrier.
2. Neither carrier in either direction will care that your flight was delayed if it causes you to miss the "connection". So if that southwest flight on the outbound is delayed and you miss your Italy flight you're SOL.

I was going to say this also. I wouldn't do this for an international flight unless you have no fricks to give about time. You miss your international flight and you are waiting a day to go. Southwest depending on where you are going may only have 1 flight a day or 1 flight every 2-3 days. I personally would not use Southwest and connect to another international flight. Just not worth the savings for the headache you are giving yourself.
