Ross

I believe the answer is:

naples

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'destination in italy' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
I also know that 'italy' relates to this answer.

'change planes' is the wordplay.
'change' is an anagram indicator.
'planes' with letters rearranged gives 'NAPLES'.

'for a' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for naples that I've seen before include "Italian city of the planes" , "See it and die, they say" , "City near Mt. Vesuvius" , "Mediterranean city" , "Italian port blockaded by Nelson" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
