SPAIN TO ITALY
 
Hello! As of January, I will be living in Sevilla while my boyfriend is living in Sorrento. We are trying to figure out ways to visit easy other. What would you suggest as the easiest/most convenient means of getting from here to there? Thanks!

Fly. The train would take too long. Look at the map.

Have you checked the train schedules? 32 to 36 hours with 8 or 9 changes.

Oh you be flying or you wont be visiting. Epic epic rail journey taking more than 3 days, return

Check skyscanner.net

Seville to Rome on Ryanair is your best bet at around $111 return. Namples is closer but around $300 on Vueling.

Dollars to pay for flights...Not in Europe!

Why thanks for the great tip. Perhaps you can do the conversion for our Minnesotan based OP if she is having trouble.

She will get used to Euros when she lives here.

Thank you for the comments everyone, I appreciate it! Flying is definitely my best bet, but is RyanAir the only way to go?
And once I get to Rome (Or Naples or Bari) am I looking at trains or buses or a Metro to get to Sorrento? I'm afraid I don't know much about Italy..

"I'm afraid I don't know much about Italy.." Try reading a little about where you plan on going. It can only help.

You need a map as well as a guidebook.

And you can check flights on www.whichbudget.com

The train from Naples to Sorrento is quite easy and inexpensive.
