Pisa has regular trains to and from Florence (usually every three per hour), to and from Lucca (usually every hour) and is also accessible by bus, and has an airport.
Pisa Airport "Galileo Galilei" is the main destination for Tuscany and central Italy (after Rome), and is served by several airlines operating hundreds of weekly flights to national and international destinations. Numerous companies offer charter flights to and from a number of European and non-European destinations. Flying to Pisa is really cheap and easy: the most important low cost flights companies reach Pisa, and the airport is 5 minutes away from the center of the town by bus, train or taxi.
You can reach the city via bus, taxi or train for no more than five or ten minutes. You can purchase tickets for bus or train at the information office, which is situated in the arrival hall. The trains are the fastest way to get to the city. The tickets cost only a Euro and the ride takes a couple of minutes. However, the trains are not very frequent. There are only two per hour. The bus has a regular service every 15 minutes and it takes another 15 minutes to get to the city. The bus runs to Piazza dei Miracoli and the central station. Tickets can be purchased either at the machines at the bus terminal or at the arrival hall's information desk. The price of the ticket is only 80 Euro cents. The ticket needs to be validated in the ticket machine when you get on the bus. Note that you need to have all necessary tickets before you get in the bus, or you will have to pay double. The bus terminal is situated close to the parking garage in the left part of the airport. Once in the city, its main sights are easy to locate and are all within walking distance.
