Rome Fiumicino Airport ground transport
Rome Fiumicino "Leonardo da Vinci" is Italy's busiest airport, about 30 km southwest of the city on the coast. The dedicated Leonardo Express train runs nonstop to Roma Termini for a flat €14, the cheaper FL1 regional train serves Trastevere, Ostiense and Tiburtina, and budget coaches also reach Termini. Official white taxis charge a fixed €55 per car to anywhere inside the Aurelian walls (and €130 to the Civitavecchia cruise port). This guide compares price, time and frequency for every popular destination.

Step-free access in Rome
Fiumicino is straightforward: both terminals are step-free throughout, with lifts, escalators and automatic doors, and the airport train boards level.
- Leonardo Express is step-free from the terminal to the train, with dedicated wheelchair spaces on board. It runs every 15 minutes and reaches Roma Termini in about 32 minutes.
- At the airport station, the yellow assistance totem on the platform summons staff if you need help boarding; the service is run by RFI.
- PRM assistance in the terminal is handled by ADR Assistance and is free: meet-and-greet, wheelchair transport through the building, and help at check-in, security and the gate.
Termini itself is busy and long, so if your onward connection is a metro line, allow more time than the map suggests.
