Galileo Galilei Pisa International Airport (PSA)

Galileo Galilei Pisa International Airport (PSA)

Pisa International Airport is located only a kilometre from Pisa Central Railway Station and from the town centre. It's a key hub for low-cost European airlines, including WizzAir, Ryanair, and EasyJet. It offers a wide range of domestic flights to various destinations across Italy, as well as international connections to countries such as Albania, Morocco, the UK, Spain and beyond. Just outside the Passenger Terminal, you will find the new high-speed, automatic 'People Mover' service, which will take you directly to Pisa Central Station with departures every day, every 5-8 minutes, from 6am to midnight. Outside the Passenger Terminal, you will find the 'P6 Area' for buses. Tickets can be bought at the Info Point, in the Arrivals Terminal. A taxi service is provided around the clock, with departures in front of the airport, also on the arrivals side.

Passport & Visa

Passport & Visa

Citizens of European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries do not need a visa to enter Italy, only a valid ID. Many other countries, including the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and New Zealand, benefit from visa-free entry for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Visitors from visa-exempt countries must hold a valid passport and, starting in late 2025, will need to apply for an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) authorisation online before travelling. For those requiring a visa, such as travellers from some Middle-East, African or Asian nations, a Schengen visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All travellers should ensure their passport is valid for at least three months beyond their intended stay.

Best Time to Visit

Best Time to Visit

Tuscany, like the whole of Italy, generally has a temperate climate, with differences depending on individual geographical areas. As Pisa is situated just a few km from the Tyrrhenian Sea, you can enjoy milder summers and winters. The best months to visit Pisa are April, May, June, September and October, with very pleasant sunny days. The summer months, July and August, can be very hot and that would make your vacation less enjoyable. June is the most popular month to visit Pisa, as the three main traditional events: the Luminara, the Regata and the Gioco del Ponte, take place during that time.

Public Transport

Public Transport

Pisa is a small city, hence the best way to see it is on foot. The company that operates Pisa’s local transport system is CPT, Compagnia Pisana Trasporti, and its information office is in Piazza Sant'Antonio. The new LAM service divides the bus network into two main lines: LAM red and LAM green, that stop at the most popular spots in the city centre, and guarantees departures every 10 minutes. You can purchase bus tickets, which you will then validate on board, at the Central Railway Station, in Via Cesare Battisti 53, or directly on board. Local, interregional, Intercity and Eurostar trains stop at Pisa Central Railway Station, connecting Pisa to the main Tuscan and Italian destinations. Train tickets are sold at the ticket office, but for short routes, up to 20 km, you can also purchase them at the newsagents. Self-service ticket machines can also be found in the station.
