Bus - Pisa Airport to Poggibonsi
On Trainspa website (http://www.trainspa.it/sienapisa.html), I see reference to a new bus service from Pisa to Siena (with a stop in Poggibonsi). Unfortunately it only has the details in Italian. I have sent an e-mail to the information link last week, but, have had no response.
Has anyone tried this service?
If you have or can understand the website, where (at the airport) does the bus leave from?
How does a person go about reserving ahead or getting a ticket?
Is it scheduled to still be running mid Sept (specifically Sept 13)?
Any comments/clarification that you have would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Larry

PRENOTA ON-LINE CON CARTA DI CREDITO is noted in two spots on the page you sent. This means "Reserve online with credit card" and are inks to the reservations page. It also says there is daily service and talks alot about losing your reservation (and I think money) if you don't pick up your ticket within 15 minutes of departure time.
Pisa Airport is not that large--there's only one terminal so ground transport should be easy to locate. Here's the link to the airport site which shows a terminal map:

ellenem - thank you for the help with translation and info on the Pisa airport.
I followed the booking link and it took me to a message which I interpret to mean that information is not available for the date that I enterred. It gives me info on dates in August but dates for September do not work. I am not sure at this time what that means. I am somewhat disappointed that they have not responded to my inquiry for information. I may have to follow up with a phone call.

Larry,
I am not sure what you are doing. Out of curiosity, I input your dates (9/13) from Pisa to Poggibonsi and it accepted my request. It gives me 2 choices, 14:30 or 22:45. It takes me to the point of asking for my CC number. Were you able to get that far?

Yes - I just discovered last night that it is now working.
I tried this with several August and September dates a couple days ago. The September dates didn't work (the August one's did). I can assume they just loaded the September schedule into the system today.
Thanks for checking on my behalf
