Leonardo da Vinci - Fiumicino International Airport
Rome (IATA: ROM for all airports) has two main international
airports:
* Leonardo da Vinci/Fiumicino International Airport
(Rome Fiumicino, IATA: FCO) - Rome's main airport is modern,
large, rather efficient, and well connected to the center
of the city by public transportation. However, late-night
arrivals may limit you to an irregular bus into town unless
you can afford a taxi

Ciampino International Airport
* Ciampino International Airport (Rome Ciampino,
IATA: CIA) - Located to the southeast of the capital, this is
the city's low-cost airline airport, serving Easyjet, Ryanair
and Wizzair flights, among others (see Discount airlines in
Europe). This small airport is closer to the city center than
Fiumicino but has no direct train connection. There are plans
to move the low-cost airport much further out of Rome, but this
is unlikely for some years. Note that at Ciampino cash machines
are available only in the departures area. This is a relatively
small airport and it closes overnight. You will be locked out
of the airport until it opens again for the first check-in around
4:30 or 5AM. Flying into Ciampino try to sit on the right of
the plane, which will fly just to the east of the centre of
the city. Reaching Rome you first see the River Tiber and then
the Olympic Stadium, Castel Sant' Angelo, St Peter's and the
Vatican and the Colosseum. Before touchdown you fly parallel
with the old Appian Way, the tree-lined road on a slight incline
about 1km to the right of the flightpath.
