General Information:

The principal airport for flights to Rome is Leonardo da Vinci Airport (FCO) (PHONE: 06/65951, www.adr.it), commonly known by the name of its location, Fiumicino. It’s 30 km (19 mi) southwest of the city, on the coast. It has been enlarged and equipped with computerized baggage handling and has a direct train link with downtown Rome.

Rome’s other airport is Ciampino (CIA) (PHONE: 06/794941, www.adr.it) on Via Appia Nuova, 15 km (9 mi) south of downtown. Ciampino is a civil and military airport used by some international flights and most charter companies.

Transfers Between the Fiumicino Airport and Downtown:

By Private Transfer: Our private transfer from the city center to airports costs from EUR 55 and takes about 45-60 minutes. If you intend to book it please (i) flag the blank in your reservation request and (ii) provide us with your flight details. The driver will be waiting for you at the airport right after customs with a sign with your name on it.

By Taxi: A taxi ride to the center of Rome costs about EUR60, including supplementi (extra charges) for airport service and luggage, and takes about 45-60 minutes. Private limousines can be booked at booths in the Arrivals hall; they charge a little more than taxis but can carry more passengers. There is a taxi stand in front of the International Arrivals hall and a booth inside for taxi information. Use only licensed white or older yellow taxis. Avoid drivers who may approach you in the Arrivals hall; they charge exorbitant, unmetered rates.

By Train: Take the 30-minute nonstop Airport-Termini express (called the Leonardo Express) that goes directly to Track 22 at Termini Station, Rome’s main train station, which is well served by taxis and is a hub of Metro and bus lines. Take then the Metro line A for two stops only. Reach the apartment walking up to Via Sistina and then turn left on Via Zucchelli. The ride to Termini takes 30 minutes; departures are every half hour beginning at 6:37 AM from the airport, with a final departure at 11:37 PM. Trains depart Termini to the airport starting at 5:52 AM and run until 11:23 PM. Tickets cost EUR8.80.

By Car: Drive north on the Via Appia Nuova into downtown Rome.

By Taxi: A taxi from Ciampino to the center of Rome can cost anywhere between EUR50 and EUR60. The ride takes between 45 and 60 minutes. Take only official cabs with the "Taxi" sign on top; unofficial cabs often overcharge disoriented travelers.

By Train: ACOTRAL bus connects the airport with the Anagnina Station of Metro line A which takes you very close to the apartment. You have to stop at "Barberini". Buses depart from in front of the airport terminal around 25 times a day between 6:50 AM and 11:40 PM. The fare is EUR1 and your ticket is also good for the Metro. Have change handy for the ticket machine, which is not always working. There is also a shop inside the terminal that can sell you a ticket. If both purchasing options fail, board the bus and offer to pay the driver.
