Bari Karol Wojtyła Airport (BRI) serves as a regional international gateway for Puglia, combining scheduled European connections with low-cost carrier routes and occasional intercontinental services. It can be seen as a mid-sized hub that typically hosts legacy carriers alongside budget airlines, so fares often range from competitive to mid-market depending on season. The airport sits about 8 km northwest of Bari’s historic centre; taxis generally take 15–25 minutes while city buses and the dedicated train link can take 20–30 minutes, with public fares typically low to moderate. Pros include a compact layout and decent frequency of flights; drawbacks can be peak-season crowding and limited late-night options compared with larger national hubs.

It’s a full‑service airport favored by major carriers and global alliances, so fares can range from budget‑competitive to premium depending on carrier and season. Located about 40–50 km northwest of the historic center, common transfers include taxi or app rides (roughly 35–60 minutes depending on traffic; fares vary), Havaist and IETT shuttle buses (about 45–75 minutes; modest fares), and planned metro connections that shorten journey time. Pros: modern terminals, wide route network and extensive amenities. Cons: longer transfer distances and occasional heavy traffic to the city.
