Find the Best Flights and Ferry Routes to Capri

Tips for booking flights to Capri

Capri does not have its own airport, so travelers must combine a flight with ground transportation and a ferry or hydrofoil journey. The most convenient aviation gateway is usually Naples International Airport (NAP), which offers domestic flights and extensive connections across Europe as well as selected seasonal and international services. Salerno Costa d'Amalfi Airport may also be useful for certain itineraries, although route availability is more limited and ground connections vary by season.

Travelers arriving from North America, South America, Asia, Africa, or Oceania commonly connect through major European hubs such as Rome, Milan, Paris, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Madrid, London, Istanbul, Zurich, or Munich before continuing to Naples. Airfares vary according to season, departure city, airline, baggage allowance, booking window, and demand. Prices typically rise around Easter, summer holidays, Christmas, New Year, and popular long weekends in Italy.

After landing in Naples, visitors must continue to a ferry departure point such as Molo Beverello or Calata Porta di Massa. Hydrofoils are faster and generally depart from Molo Beverello, while conventional ferries may be better suited to travelers with larger luggage or those seeking lower fares. Travelers arriving through Rome can also take a high-speed train to Naples before transferring to the port. Flight times should always be coordinated with ferry schedules, especially for afternoon and evening arrivals.

Booking several months in advance is recommended for summer, Easter, and long-haul travel. Travelers should include airport transfers, train or taxi fares, ferry tickets, luggage handling, and possible overnight accommodation in Naples or Sorrento when comparing total trip costs. Visitors arriving after the final ferry of the day may need to stay on the mainland and continue to Capri the following morning, making early arrivals especially valuable.
