Fiumicino to Civitavecchia port: train, shuttle, taxi
Fiumicino and the Civitavecchia berths are about 70 km apart, and the choice is between a slow 11 euro train and a fixed price door to door. The SIT coach at 20 euros is direct, but it does not run on a published timetable that you can plan around. The taxi is a fixed 130 euros for the car, so for a family of four it costs about the same as the coach.

Every option in detail
TrainFL1 and regional train
- €11
- 2 h 45 min
- → Civitavecchia station, 1.5 km from the port
Take the FL1 to Roma Trastevere or Ostiense, change to a regional train towards Civitavecchia, and ride about an hour to the end. One regional ticket for Fiumicino Aeroporto to Civitavecchia costs 11.00 euros under Trenitalia's airport tariff, against 13.10 euros if you buy the legs separately. Validate it at the airport turnstiles. At Civitavecchia you still need the free port shuttle, a 15 to 20 minute walk or the paid station bus, so allow close to three hours in all. With cases and a platform change it is hard work.
ShuttleSIT direct coach
- €20
- 1 h 30 min
- → Largo della Pace, at the port entrance
SIT sells a one-way ticket for 20 euros per person and says the service runs every day, including holidays. Its public timetable lists only the Civitavecchia to Fiumicino departure at 09:40, which arrives at 10:25. The Fiumicino times are shown at the online booking step, so book before you fly and match the departure to your landing. The ride takes about 45 minutes. A free port shuttle then takes you from Largo della Pace to your berth.
TaxiOfficial taxi, fixed fare
- €130 per vehicle

- → Civitavecchia port, the entrance at Largo della Pace
Roma Capitale sets a fixed fare of 130 euros per taxi between Fiumicino and Civitavecchia port, in either direction. It includes every supplement and the motorway tolls, but not the 5 euro charge for each passenger beyond the fourth. The drive takes about 45 to 60 minutes on the A12. Take only a white taxi from the rank and agree the fixed fare before leaving. Tell the driver your terminal. If the car cannot enter the port area, the free shuttle at Largo della Pace covers the last stretch.
Private carPre-booked private car
- €155 per vehicle (estimate)

- 24 hours
- → The cruise terminal or your berth
A pre-booked sedan for up to three passengers starts at about 155 euros, and quotes range higher for premium cars. The driver tracks your flight, so a late landing does not change the price. It costs about 25 euros more than the fixed taxi, in return for a named driver at the exit and a drop-off at the terminal, not only the port gate.
The same trip in a different situation
Arriving late at night
For a landing at 00:30 the train is out. The last FL1 from the airport leaves at 23:27 and the last Termini to Civitavecchia train leaves at 23:27 as well, so the two cannot connect. SIT publishes no late Fiumicino departure either. A taxi rank works through the night at the same fixed 130 euros, and a pre-booked car from about 155 euros will wait for a delayed flight. If the flight lands too late to reach the port comfortably, a hotel near the airport and a morning transfer is the safer plan.
See the comparison →4 people, 4 suitcasesTravelling as a group of four
Four people on the train pay 44 euros in total and four on the SIT coach pay 80 euros. The taxi is 130 euros for the whole car, which is 32.50 each for four. For a family with cases the taxi is only 50 euros more than the coach and runs on your schedule, which matters with a fixed all-aboard time. A private sedan seats three, so four people need the taxi or a larger car. The train is the cheapest but you carry the bags through two stations and a shuttle.
See the comparison →Practical tips
- Work back from the all-aboard time. By taxi or car, plan to land at least four hours before it, and allow five and a half hours by train.
- The 130 euro fare is for the whole car. It includes tolls and all supplements, but not the 5 euro charge for each passenger beyond the fourth.
- Book the SIT coach online before you fly. Its Fiumicino departure times appear only at the booking step.
- The train ticket is one single regional fare from Fiumicino Aeroporto to Civitavecchia. Validate it at the turnstiles before boarding.
- Free shuttles link the berths with Largo della Pace at Civitavecchia. Taxis stop at the port entrance, not at every berth.
- A flight that lands within three hours of all-aboard is a risk on any option. Consider a hotel the night before.
Questions travellers ask
How much is a taxi from Fiumicino airport to Civitavecchia port?
The fixed fare is 130 euros per taxi, set by Roma Capitale in the June 2026 tariff. It applies in both directions and includes tolls and all supplements. The drive takes about 45 to 60 minutes.
Is there a direct bus from Fiumicino airport to Civitavecchia port?
Yes. SIT Bus Shuttle runs a direct coach from Terminal 3 stall 16 to Largo della Pace for 20 euros one way, and the ride takes about 45 minutes. Departure times appear when you book online.
Can I take the train from Fiumicino airport to Civitavecchia?
Yes, with one change. Take the FL1 to Roma Trastevere or Ostiense, then a regional train to Civitavecchia. A single ticket for the whole trip costs 11.00 euros, and you then need the port shuttle or a 1.5 km walk.
How long before all-aboard should my flight land?
Allow at least four hours by taxi, shuttle or car, and five and a half hours by train. The cruise line may not hold the ship for a late flight, so confirm the all-aboard time on your itinerary.
Is there a night train from Fiumicino to Civitavecchia?
No. The last FL1 from the airport is at 23:27, and the last train from Termini to Civitavecchia leaves at 23:27, so the connection fails late in the evening. Use the taxi at 130 euros or pre-book a car.
