need a bus ticket in Italy, but I'm having trouble with the Sulga website
 
Hi. I'm trying to purchase a one-way ticket from the Rome airport to Perugia for next week. The site won't let me fill in a required field. Any ideas about what I'm doing wrong? The site is www.sulga.it. The field I'm having a problem with is "selezionare un titolo". Grazie!

Unless you're traveling with a baby/child, choose Corsa Semplice.

Looks like you need to be registered ("registrati ora" means "register yourself now") and logged in - see below in Area Clienti where it wants you to log in, and top right where it says Utente non autenticato (non-authenticated user).
My guess is that once you're a registered user of the site, the "titolo" options won't be greyed out.

Well, I registered as a user, but...no satisfaction. My friend suggested that there isn't a bus between the Roma airport and Perugia, but, unless I'm reading that wrong, too, there seems to be a few.

Hi

I think there's a glitch in their booking engine. I tried another departure point and that worked. I have reported it to the company and should I receive a reply I'll repost here. The only other alternative in the meantime is to ring them to make a booking.

Hi again

I received a response - see below. I hope I have interpreted it correctly. They stated that the Fiumicino to Perugia ticket is purchased on the bus. The cost is 22 euro. You can only purchase online tickets for Roma - Ravenna.

"Buongiorno,non ci sono problemi nel sito perchè on-line è possibile acquistare soltano i biglietti per l'autolinea Roma - Ravenna.
Il biglietto Fiumicino - Perugia si acquista direttamente a bordo dell'autobus, il costo è di euro 22,00 andata, euro 36,00 a/r aperto 30 giorni.
Cordiali saluti.

As it turns out, tickets for this route can't be purchased from the Sulga website, but are purchased directly from the drivers. Hope this is helpful to others, too.

Worldinabag - sorry I didn't see your reply. Thank you for your efforts.

There are some train tickets available from 18,80 EUR. You might plug in your dates and see if something works for your date/time.
