Palermo to Naples
Any hints on a reliable airline from Palermo to Naples that flies on Sunday?

Ferrett - When are you going?
Only AlpiEagles currently fly this route. www.alpieagles.com Hope this helps ... Steve |
Have you considered the overnight ferry ? it sounds nice & that's what I'm hoping to do next time I visit Palermo. See if you can find surfingmomma's trip report where she recommended it. Or there is a direct train.

i agree with Caroline- if you have the time go w/ the ferry. That is what we are planning. It is a 10 hrs ride but at night. For $80pp you can travel at night and save on a night in a hotel too. Kill 2 birds w/ 1 stone.
Although i definitly see the bonus w/ a quick flight. I don't know for sure but does AIROne or Alitalia fly that route? |
There are overnight ships run by two companies (www.tirrenia.it and www.snav.it). It will be quicker than flying because you will not waste any time - you can spend a whole day in Palermo and arrive in Napoli first thing the next morning. Fares are reasonable even if you go for the better cabins.

And if you want to go on the cheap, you can reserve a comfortable first class reclining seat (similar to business class on aircraft) for under 40 Euros, and save the cost of a cabin. The crossing takes 9 hours, about the same as a transatlantic flight.
Only Tirrenia Lines offers the first class deeply reclining seats (195 in number). They offer a very generous recline. By contrast, the seats on the SNAV ferry are the standard second class recliners. If you prefer a cabin with private facilities, Tirrenia costs a little more than SNAV, but their ships are bigger and more modern. Crossing times and schedules is nearly the same with both operators. |
