From the airport
to home:
Pisa is the main airport in Tuscany . It was named after
its well known resident "Galileo Galilei" who
is one of the greatest Astronomer and Physicist who ever
lived but there is not that much to explore about Galileo
in this beautiful airport. If you arrived in this airport,
there is a train station nearby and there is more information
on how to get home at the Information Desk.
The Florence Airport,
Amerigo Vespucci, is the closest to the city but it is not
as big as the above mentioned airport. The general times
for checking in for flights are 25 minutes before the flight
for local flights and 45 minutes for international flight.
Other airports that are worth mentioning are: Bologna, Rimini,
Genova and Milan which are main international airports.
There are daily scheduled
flights offered by British Airways , Alitalia, Air France,
and Lufthansa from London, Mùnich, and Frankfurt
to Pisa.
