Getting to and from the airport

Passengers driving to and from Rome Fuimicino International Airport should not encounter many problems as the route into the city is well signposted. The journey should take about 45 minutes via the Autostrada.

There are several other options for getting into the city, with the most economical being the ‘Leonardo Express’ train which runs into the city every 30 minutes. Regular bus services also run from outside the terminals into the city every 30 minutes, while a night bus runs from the airport to Rome’s Central Station. Taxis are available outside every terminal 24 hours a day, but be careful as they are well known for their extortionate prices.
