Naples Airport, officially known as Naples International Airport (IATA: NAP), is located in Capodichino, just a few kilometres northeast of Naples city centre.
From the Airport to Naples city centre you can either get a taxi or bus. Taking a taxi is the most convenient way as it only takes 12 minutes and costs €16. The Alibus Shuttle takes 15 minutes and a one-way ticket costs €5.
Taking Cabs
Cabs are available outside the arrivals area at the airport.Only use licensed taxis and agree the fare before starting the journey.
Attention! In case you don’t agree the fare in advance, ask the driver where the meter is positioned and always keep an eye on it. Sometimes they turn it off when you are distracted and charge whatever they want.
