About Rome Fiumicino Airport, Italy

Rome Fiumicino Airport (FCO), officially named Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, is Italy’s largest and most important international airport.

The airport provides excellent amenities including designer boutiques, restaurants, duty-free shops, currency exchange, VIP lounges, and free Wi-Fi.

Transportation to and from the airport

Travelers can access central Rome via the Leonardo Express train to Termini Station, shuttle buses, taxis, and private transfers.
