ITALY TRAVEL GUIDE - GETTING THERE

World Travel Guide Europe Italy Getting There

Picture choosen by: NONETony Walter Getting to Italy By plane
Italy has a national airline, Alitalia, as well as several smaller carriers, such as Meridiana or Air One. In January 2009 Air One and Alitalia merged, although for the time being at least they keep their separate identities. As a result of this merger, Germany's Lufthansa started an Italian subsidiary that tries to become a main rival for Alitalia with a hub in Milan.
Italy is one of the main battle grounds for European low cost airlines several routes to/from and within Italy are offered. Fhe larger airports are, of course, served by the major European airlines.
Intercontinental airlines mainly arrive in Milan and Rome. Although a major tourist destination, Rome is relatively poorly serviced by long-distance flights compared to London, Frankfurt, Paris, Madrid or even Milan.
Most of mid-range international flights arrive to the following Italian cities:
Milan - with 2 airports: Malpensa (MXP) and Linate (LIN); in addition, Bergamo (BGY - Orio al Serio) is sometimes referred to as "Milan Bergamo"
Rome - with two airports: Fiumicino (FCO - Leonardo Da Vinci) and Ciampino (CIA) for budget airlines
Bologna (BLQ – Guglielmo Marconi)
Naples (NAP - Capodichino)
Pisa (PSA - Galileo Galilei)
Venice (VCE – Marco Polo)
