Buses

Operated by Azienda Napoletana Mobilità (ANM), frequent buses travel to and from the airport from the Napoli Centrale railway station and the port of Naples (the Piazza Municipio), departing roughly four times an hour throughout the day. Tickets are available for purchase at the Sunstore shop based within the Arrivals area.

There are also Alibus shuttle buses that travel to and from the central railway station, the Piazza Municipio and the Piazza Garibaldi, running every 30 minutes. Tickets for these shuttles can be purchased as you board the bus.

Further afield, buses also connect Avellino (55 minutes, east), Benevento (one hour and 30 minutes, north-east), Caserta (45 minutes, north), Sorrento (one hour and 20 minutes, south), Salerno (one hour and ten minutes, south-east) and Serre (one hour and 40 minutes, south-east).

Cars

Cars can be readily hired at the airport, with the best prices tending to be secured when booked ahead of arrival. The drive into the city centre follows the A56 / Tangenziale (bypass) road and this journey should take in the region of ten minutes. From the airport, it is even possible to drive all the way to Rome (to the north-west) in around two hours, via the A1 'Motorway of the Sun' (the Autostrada del Sole).
