Catania–Fontanarossa (CTA) is Sicily’s main international gateway and typically functions as the region’s primary hub for both legacy carriers and low-cost airlines, so you’ll often find a mix of full-service and budget options. The airport sits about 7–8 km southwest of Catania city centre; taxis and app-based rides usually take 15–25 minutes depending on traffic, and buses or the Alibus shuttle are a cheaper choice at roughly 20–30 minutes with modest fares. Car hire is common for onward travel across the island. Pros: compact terminal, frequent connections and competitive low-cost fares; cons: can be busy in peak season and transfer times may increase in high traffic.
