Have you ever dreamed of landing in the heart of the Mediterranean without the chaos of Naples traffic? 2026 has brought a revolution for lovers of the "Divina": the full expansion of the Salerno-Costa d’Amalfi Airport (QSR).

As a local family rooted in this vertical land, we’ve created this practical guide to help you reach our vacation home quickly, sustainably, and with the most scenic views possible.


1. Flight Routes: Who flies to Salerno?

The Salerno Airport is now the primary gateway for international travelers. Major routes for 2026 include:

  • EasyJet: Direct flights from London Gatwick, Berlin, Geneva, Basel, and Milan Malpensa.
  • Ryanair: Connections from London Stansted, Brussels Charleroi, Vienna, Turin, and Milan Bergamo.
  • Volotea: Routes from Verona, Catania, Nantes, Lyon, and Marseille.
  • British Airways & Wizz Air: Premium flights from London Gatwick and key Eastern European hubs like Budapest and Bucharest.

2. From the Airport to Salerno Port: Shuttles & Taxis

Once you land, you have several options to reach the Salerno piers (to catch a ferry) or the city center.

"Salerno Airlink" Shuttle Bus

The fastest and most affordable connection between the airport and the Salerno Train Station/City Center.

Taxis & Private Transfers

Official taxis are available outside the terminal.

  • Fixed Rate to Salerno Port/Center: Approx. €50.00 (up to 4 people).
  • Private Transfer to Amalfi (Direct): Between €130.00 and €150.00.

3. By Sea: The Most Scenic Arrival (April – October)

If you arrive during the tourist season, the ferry is the ultimate way to experience your first glimpse of the Coast.

  • Main Carrier: Travelmar (frequent departures from Molo Concordia, located right across from the train station).
  • Travel Time: 35 minutes to Amalfi.
  • Cost: Approx. €12.00.
  • Live Timetables: Book online at Travelmar.it

4. By Land: SITA Sud Buses & Smart Mobility

For winter travelers or those who love the world-famous coastal road, the SITA Sud buses connect Salerno to Amalfi year-round.

Expert Tip: Skip the Paper Tickets (UnicoCampania App)

Don’t waste time searching for open tobacco shops or newsstands. In 2026, the smartest way to move is digital.

  • UnicoCampania App: Download it on your smartphone (Download Link).
  • Why use it? Purchase tickets for SITA buses, Airlink shuttles, and regional trains in seconds. Simply activate the QR code when you board.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is Salerno Airport closer to Amalfi than Naples? Yes! It is significantly closer. You can reach Amalfi in about 60-70 minutes by car, or just 35 minutes via ferry from Salerno Port.

What happens if I arrive on a Sunday or Public Holiday? SITA buses and Airlink shuttles run on holidays, though with a reduced frequency. The UnicoCampania App is the most reliable way to have your ticket ready without worrying about shop closures.

Can I rent a car at the airport? Yes, all major car rental desks are available. However, if you are staying in the center of Amalfi, we highly recommend ferries or private transfers to avoid the stress of limited parking.
