How to get from Pisa Airport to Pisa Centrale? 

The shortest point-to-point distance between PSA Airport and Pisa Centrale is 2.3 km, which is equivalent to a 20-25-minute walk. Still, we don’t recommend making the trip on foot while carrying your luggage. Instead, we advise you to use one of the following alternative transport methods: 

• Train. PisaMover offers a spot-to-spot 5-minute ride to the station, with routes departing every 10 minutes and a €5.00-ticket. However, in practice, it is much more time-consuming! 
• Car hire. If you collect a hire car at Pisa Galileo Galilei Airport, it will take you about 6 minutes to get to your destination. Plus, you can enjoy the convenience of putting all your heavy bags into the trunk. The fastest route gets you through the old town, where narrow streets can cause slight congestion during peak hours. Luckily, you won't have any parking-related issues to deal with, as plenty of open-air lots are available along Via Quarantola. The minimum cost of hiring a car in Pisa is about €9-10 per day. 
• Taxi. A single taxi trip from PSA to the railway station costs about €7.00 and can increase in the late-night hours. For a similar price, driving a car is more profitable, since you pay per day, and can therefore visit more spots during that period.
