Contrary to what one
may imagine, there is no airport in the sorrentine peninsula or even
in Sorrento itself.
This does not affect the fact, that arriving by plane is easier than
one may imagine and speedy transfers by other means of transport are
guaranteed for reaching any point along the Sorrento or Amalfi coasts.
To resolve the “problem” of how to get to Sorrento by plane, one
only has to take into consideration the nearby Naples airport, also
known as Capodichino airport. |

The Naples International Airport, not many kilometres from
Sorrento
and the sorrentine peninsula (which includes the council districts
of: Massa Lubrense, Sant’Agnello, Piano di Sorrento, Meta, Vico
Equense and naturally Sorrento), and from other important tourist
localities such as Campi Flegrei (Pozzuoli, Cuma, Baia Felice, Capo
Miseno and Bacoli), Ercolano, Pompeii, and the Amalfi coast (
including Amalfi, Ravello, Positano, Praiano, Furore, Conca dei
Marini, Atrani, Maiori, Erchie, Cetara and Vietri sul Mare). Furthermore, it is strategically placed for reaching
Capri, Ischia
and Procida.
Naples airport is well
linked to most capital cities in the world, European cities and all
major Italian airports.
The principal international flight companies fly direct to Naples
Capodichino airport as do many accredited charter companies on
non-stop flights.
Naples Capodichino airport is well linked to Sorrento and all of the
sorrentine peninsula thanks to a wide range of transport services
and links which provide reasonably speedy transfers from Capodichino
airport to Sorrento and naturally vice versa.
When deciding which method of transport to use between Capodichino
and Sorrento (and obviously Sorrento – Capodichino) there are
several possibilities to choose from according to: the availability
and frequency of the method of transport which one may wish to use,
the time taken to travel from Capodichino to Sorrento, comfort, the exclusiveness of the
method of transport chosen, and the cost of the
journey. In short, one may choose the method preferred, availability
permitting. |

The security systems
available at Naples Capodichino airport follow the code provided by
law, which determines the important security measures required for
the prevention of terrorist attacks and to keep any delinquent
activity under control. This security service is also made efficient
by the notable presence of police officers.
In conclusion, it can be seen that whoever chooses to come to
Sorrento by plane, may choose from a considerable variety of options
and advantages (in number and variety) and that certainly – even if
in some cases one has to make a somewhat economical sacrifice - they
are time-saving and provide notable tranquillity and comfort. |
