Naples airport transfers to the station, port and center

Naples Airport at Capodichino is close to the city, but road traffic makes arrival times variable. The Alibus shuttle serves the main station and port area, while an official taxi takes you directly to your accommodation. Choose your destination before boarding: the station suits onward trains, while the port stop is more useful for the waterfront and ferry connections.

Step by step

How each one works

  1. Bus: Alibus to Napoli Centrale

    Follow airport signs to the Alibus stop outside arrivals and choose the citybound service. Get off at Piazza Garibaldi for Napoli Centrale and Circumvesuviana connections. Buy a ticket through the official sales channels or on board where available, and follow validation instructions.

  2. Bus: Alibus to the port

    Board the citybound Alibus at the airport and remain on board beyond the station for the port area. Check the current stop list against your ferry terminal. Use the official ticket channels and keep your ticket available for inspection.

  3. Taxi: Official airport taxi

    Use the signed official taxi rank outside arrivals and give the driver your full address. Ask whether a published fixed fare applies to your destination before departure. Confirm the payment method before loading luggage and request a receipt.

Late and early

Arriving late or leaving early

Check the official Alibus timetable for your arrival or departure day rather than assuming an overnight service. If your flight falls outside operating hours, arrange a taxi. For an early departure, ask your accommodation to help confirm the pickup location and allow for loading luggage.

Tips

Before you land

  • Keep the accommodation address ready, including the street number, since a neighborhood name alone may leave a long final walk.
  • For Capri connections, check the departure port on your ferry ticket before choosing the Alibus stop.
  • Allow a buffer between landing and any train or ferry, since baggage collection and road traffic can delay the transfer.
