Naples If you want to fly by taxi during your Italian sailing charter, you can reserve or hail licensed taxis in advance and settle on the fare before you get in. As taxis appear to overcharge visitors, make sure you just pay when you get out with your bags and pay for what you agreed to. As the traffic is strong, avoid hiring cars. We can arrange airport transfers on your behalf.
Sicily In the marina district, there are two airports, both of which are about two hours away from the base. A drive and a ride on the Villa San Giovanni-Messina ferry are expected at Reggio Calabria Airport. At the airport, taxis and other transportation are open. The other airport is the Airport of Catania-Fontanarossa, or Vincenzo Bellini Airport. 2.3 NM southwest of Catania, the second largest city on the Italian island of Sicily, is the international airport.
