How to Reach Us
Directions
- From the Airport to the City Centre by bus
- Catania-Fontanarossa Airport offers bus services to the city of Catania and other surrounding areas. Bus services tend to be much cheaper than taking a taxi, and many passengers prefer this economical option.
- The city of Catania is only a few miles away from the airport, and buses leave the airport every roughly 20 minutes to reach the city center and the train station. Buses are available from 04:40 until half past midnight. This bus transport is provided by the AMT ‘Alibus’ service AMTS lines Catania.
- Take note that all bus tickets, once used, should be validated, or stamped. This is usually done by the validating machines near the entrance of the buses. The machine will put a stamp and a date on your ticket to show that it has been used. Passengers of the bus must validate their own tickets, as they are not validated by the driver of the bus.
