Transfer between flights

Connecting flights at Fiumicino Airport are clearly signposted with "Connecting Flights" signs and there are departure boards with the gate numbers of connecting flights in many places within the terminals.

When connecting from Non-Schengen countries to all destinations, you must go through both security and passport control.

Fiumicino Airport is a major hub with many long-haul routes and it can often happen that the best value tickets will include a night change, but under no circumstances will this be covered by the airline.

The cheapest hotels are in Fiumicino, about 3 km from the airport.

The vast majority of them only offer chargeable transport (usually around 15 eur), but you can use the Cotral bus service for 1,10 eur, see more in the Transport section above.

Just beware that the last bus from the airport leaves at 21:00. Prices per night are between 90 eur and 150 eur.
