Which Airport for Siena? Florence vs Rome vs Pisa
Honest comparison of the three viable airports for a Siena trip.
# Which Airport for Siena? Florence vs Rome vs Pisa
The single most-asked question on Tuscany travel forums. Here's the real answer.
What visitors ask
Florence (FLR)?
Best. 90 min to Siena by bus/car. Small, easy.
Pisa (PSA)?
Good. 2h by train via Empoli. Cheap Ryanair flights from UK.
Rome Fiumicino (FCO)?
Workable. 3h+ via train (Roma → Chiusi → Siena). Best for transatlantic from US.
Bologna (BLQ)?
Backup. 3h drive — only if flight deal is strong.
Direct US flights?
Only Rome FCO has them year-round. Florence direct in summer.
Local tip
From the US: fly into Rome, take the train via Chiusi, stay 3 nights Siena, then loop to Florence and fly home. Painless.
