One thing I will fault Italy for though, is the Rome airport, this airport is not user friendly and nobody is in a hurry to move things along quickly or efficiently. There is no point in getting upset, read this before traveling, and take it for what it is. When you land in Rome Fiumicino Airport, you&#8217;re not getting out quickly and easily. Here is the order of what you will encounter upon arrival:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Passport control \/ Immigration<\/li><li>Baggage Claim<\/li><li>SIM Card<\/li><li>Coffee<\/li><li>Transit to Rome<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_85 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/travel-tips\/rome-fiumicino-airport-what-to-do-when-you-land\/#Passport_Control_Immigration\" >Passport Control \/ Immigration<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/travel-tips\/rome-fiumicino-airport-what-to-do-when-you-land\/#Baggage_Claim\" >Baggage Claim<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/travel-tips\/rome-fiumicino-airport-what-to-do-when-you-land\/#SIM_Card\" >SIM Card<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/travel-tips\/rome-fiumicino-airport-what-to-do-when-you-land\/#Coffee\" >Coffee<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/travel-tips\/rome-fiumicino-airport-what-to-do-when-you-land\/#Transit_to_Rome\" >Transit to Rome<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/travel-tips\/rome-fiumicino-airport-what-to-do-when-you-land\/#CDV_Guests_at_Rome_Fiumicino_Airport\" >CDV Guests at Rome Fiumicino Airport<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Passport_Control_Immigration\"><\/span>Passport Control \/ Immigration<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are arriving from an EU country, this should be pretty simple and go smoothly- Congratulations! You&#8217;ll simply follow the signage that is in both English and Italian to baggage claim and you can skip ahead to the next step! Bravo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are arriving from the United States, you arrive in a different terminal and must wait for shuttles to retrieve you and bring you to the main terminal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you arrive at passport control, it&#8217;s time to get comfortable. Unless you have an EU passport, it&#8217;s likely going to be a long wait. Rome Fiumicino airport is often understaffed, and passport control can take upwards of an hour. It is what it is, there isn&#8217;t anything to be done about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Baggage_Claim\"><\/span>Baggage Claim<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you finally clear Passport control, the very next room is baggage claim. Look for arrival boards that will indicate which belt your flight is at. If you waited an eternity at passport control, theres a good chance that your bags are already waiting for you. You can grab a luggage cart for \u20ac1.00 to help haul your bags if you need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"SIM_Card\"><\/span>SIM Card<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can only buy SIM cards in the Rome Airport in Terminal 3.

As soon as you get your luggage, you are funneled out of sliding glass doors to a welcome committee of people awaiting their loved ones, look past the chaos of all the people, there are multiple coffee shops right behind them. Go on, order yourself your first sip of Italian coffee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><a href=\"\/blog\/coffee\/italian-coffee-what-and-how-to-order\/\">Need to know what your coffee options are and what to order? : Click here!<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" data-attachment-id=\"1729\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/travel-tips\/rome-fiumicino-airport-what-to-do-when-you-land\/attachment\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"800,600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 8 Plus&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1537792289&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;3.99&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;40&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.058823529411765&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1.jpg\" alt=\"The Welcome Committee at Rome Fiumicino Airport\" class=\"wp-image-1729\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-680x510.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-250x188.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-76x57.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.culturediscovery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/terminal_3_fco_airport_rome-1-50x38.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>The Welcome Committee at Rome Fiumicino Airport<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Transit_to_Rome\"><\/span>Transit to Rome<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You might be surprised to learn that the Rome airport is actually a ways a way from Rome. It&#8217;s in a city called Fiumicino, which is 35 kilometers, about 20 miles from Rome. There are a few ways to get into Rome easily, though. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Take the Leonardo Express Train<ul><li>The&nbsp;Leonardo Express&nbsp;is the quickest way to&nbsp;get&nbsp;from Fiumicino Airport to central Rome. Trains run at 15- to 30-minute intervals from early morning until late at night,<strong>&nbsp;taking&nbsp;just 32 minutes<\/strong> to bring you into Rome&#8217;s Termini Station<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Take a Taxi<ul><li>As you are walking our of baggage claim, you will be hounded by people asking if you need a taxi. The fixed&nbsp;fare&nbsp;for a&nbsp;Rome taxi&nbsp;is \u20ac48 between FCO and central&nbsp;Rome&nbsp;(within the Aurelian walls) for up to four people and their luggage. The trip <strong>takes approximately 45 minutes<\/strong>.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Rent a Car<ul><li>Driving in Rome is chaotic. Even if you speak Italian and can read the signs, I can&#8217;t recommend trying to rent a car to be in Rome. There are ZTL (limited traffic zones) where you will be fined unless you have a special sticker, which you don&#8217;t have. Lanes mean nothing, turn signals mean nothing, stop signs mean nothing, intersections mean nothing, and there are scooters zipping around all over the place. <\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Book a private transfer<ul><li>This is something you can do before you leave your home. Google private transfers in Rome, ask your hotel for recommendations, or ask us!
