Fiumicino to Ciampino: getting to Ciampino Airport after midnight
For a landing at 00:30 the public options have gone. The last Leonardo Express leaves Fiumicino at 23:53 and the last Rome Airport Bus leaves Termini at 23:55, so the two cannot connect, and the last workable pair is a Leonardo roughly an hour earlier. The Tambus does run through the night to Termini, but the operator lists no Termini to Ciampino bus between 23:55 and 04:00. The taxi rank at Fiumicino works all night at the same fixed 55 euros, which makes it the only reliable way to Ciampino after midnight.

Every option in detail
TrainLeonardo Express and airport bus
- €22
- 2 h 5 min
- → Ciampino Airport bus station, main entrance
Ride the Leonardo Express to Termini (14 euros, 32 minutes), walk about 8 minutes to the Rome Airport Bus stop on Via Giovanni Giolitti, opposite the market, and take the bus to Ciampino for 8 euros online. That ride takes about 40 minutes. The operator lists Termini departures from 04:00 to 23:55. The wait at Termini is the main variable, because the bus runs only about every 45 minutes, so check the next departure before you walk across.
BusCoach via Termini
- €15
- 2 h 25 min
- → Ciampino Airport bus station, main entrance
Take the Tambus from Terminal 3 to Via Giolitti, beside Termini, for 7 euros online. Rome Airport Bus leaves from the same street, so the change is a short walk. The second leg is 8 euros and about 40 minutes. The total is 15 euros, 7 less than the train, but the coach is slower in traffic and takes about 20 minutes longer overall. It is also the only route with a first leg that runs through the night.
TaxiOfficial taxi, fixed fare
- €55 per vehicle
- 55 min
- 24 hours
- → Ciampino Airport, departures drop-off
Roma Capitale sets a fixed fare of 55 euros per taxi between Fiumicino and Ciampino, in both directions. It includes all supplements and the tolls, but not the 5 euro charge for each passenger beyond the fourth. The drive goes round the ring road and takes about 45 minutes. Take only a white taxi from the rank, and agree the fixed fare before leaving.
Private carPre-booked private car
- €87 per vehicle (estimate)
- 55 min
- 24 hours
- → Ciampino Airport, departures drop-off
A pre-booked sedan for up to three passengers starts at about 87 euros, and premium cars cost more. The driver tracks your flight, so a late landing does not move the booking. It is about 30 euros more than the taxi, and buys a named driver and a fixed price before you land.
Practical tips
- Allow at least four and a half hours between landing at Fiumicino and a Ciampino departure by taxi or car, and six hours by public transport. Separate tickets mean the second airline will not wait for you.
- Rome Airport Bus boards on Via Giovanni Giolitti, opposite the market, a few minutes from the Leonardo Express platforms at Termini.
- The Ciampino bus runs only about every 45 minutes, so look up the next departure before you leave the train.
- Rome Airport Bus costs 8 euros online and 9 euros from the driver. Buy before you board.
- Ask the taxi driver to confirm the fixed fare before leaving. The same 55 euros applies in either direction.
- Terravision also sells Termini to Ciampino coach tickets from about 6.50 euros, but its fare moves with the date, so treat it as a guide.
