Florence Airport

Florence Airport Amerigo Vespucci opened in 1931 and remains a compact, convenient gateway to Tuscany with a single-terminal layout serving primarily short- and medium-haul routes; its small size makes it easy to navigate and ideal for travelers headed to central Florence, about 4 km away. Ground connections are straightforward, with the Tramvia line and frequent shuttle buses linking the airport to Santa Maria Novella station, taxis and regional buses for wider Tuscany access. Not a major hub, it’s served by carriers such as ITA Airways, Vueling and several seasonal low-cost airlines; fares can be higher than nearby Pisa but occasional budget routes make Florence Airport competitive for cheap flights.
