Malta to Florence
 

Hi, I'm travelling from Malta Dec'15 to Florence, with family (9). What would be the best way to get there, ie: fly to Rome then train? Not sure, need help!

Alitalia has flights from Malta to Rome. It's how I traveled when I was there in December. I think it's the most practical way, maybe the only way in winter. I went on by train from Rome.

Check Ryanair and Easyjet to see which Italian cities they fly to/from Malta. I flew from Torino to Malta and then from Malta to Bergamo in July on Ryanair. No problems with either flight.

Yes, I meant flying in winter, not that Alitalia is the only way. Do check others too. Whichbudget.com is one site.

Dec 15th:
MLA dp 17.50 - ryanair (fares start at 30 EUR/pax) - PSA ar 19.35 - Pisa Mover - Pisa Centrale dp 20.32 - Trenitalia (fare 8 EUR/pax) - Florence ar 21.32.

Thankyou for your suggestions, I'm still trying!

What do you try?
There is NO direct Malta - Florence Amerigo Vespucci Airport flight. Direct flights go to the airport of Pisa, some 60 miles away.

You could fly to Rome and catch the direct train from Fiumicino to Florence. Remember Ryanair usually flies into Ciampino, not Fiumicino, the main Rome airport.
