Bus Lucca to Pisa airport?
There seems to be a bus called VAI which leaves Piazza Verdi at 45 minutes past the hour. I presume it also runs back from the airport to Lucca. Does anyone have experience of this? Hours, days, prices, reliablility?

Hey G,

You are aware that there is train service as well?

Thank you Ira, yes I am but it involves a change at Pisa Centrale and seems to take a very long time! I was hoping for something less painful.

Hi Gertie - The Pisa airport website shows the timetable:

Hope this helps ...

Thank you Steve James. That is exactly what I wanted. It had never occurred to me to look on the airport website.

Unless I'm reading the timetable wrong, the bus is not faster than the train through Pisa Centrale. I can't evaluate the "pain" issue.
