Getting around 2 September 2007

In a couple of days I will be off to London and getting to do what all of you guys do, go on holiday. Its only when you have to do something yourself that you begin to realise all the details involved. The big issue is organising transport.

Hopefully this bit of information will help you out when you have to make a decision. So I am going to be flying out of Ciampino to Stanstead. I am using Ryanair so I have decided to get a Terravision bus ride from Termini to Ciampino. It takes about 55 minutes but they guarantee to get you to your destination on time. A one way journey costs 8 euro and a return is 14 euro. I have decided to get a return ticket for travelling on both sides. Here and in London. This is the most painless way for me to travel as it avoids having to connect busses with trains etc.

The other way you can get to Ciampino would be to use the A line on the metro. You go all the way to Anagnina and then you get a Cotral bus from there to Ciampino. You can also get a train from Termini that takes you to Ciampino town and then get a bus from there to the airport.

Getting to and from Fiumicino is far easier. The Leonardo Express takes you directly to Termini from the airport. It takes around 30 minutes and costs you 11 euros. You can also book a taxi from the hotel either to Ciampino or Fiumicino if you have a lot of bags with you.
