Bari Karol Wojtyla Airport: where to stay, areas and recommended hotels

The Ferrovie del Sud Est train connects Bari Palese airport to the Centrale station in about 18-20 minutes, with departures every 20-30 minutes: for those who want to see Bari, between the Murat district and the old town, the centre remains the most convenient choice even for a short stay. Staying near the terminal, in the Palese and Macchie area, only makes sense for a dawn flight or a late-night return, when you want to cut transfer time to zero: the offer there, though, is mostly small apartments rather than big hotels, so it needs to be chosen with more care.

Palese e Macchie

Airport area · A few minutes by car or taxi from the terminal; there's no direct shuttle service, and the area isn't covered by the AMTAB bus line to the airport.

Best for: Those with a dawn flight or a short layover who'd rather not depend on night trains or buses.

Pros
  • A few minutes' drive from the terminal, handy for a dawn flight
  • A quiet residential district compared with the traffic of central Bari
Cons
  • Without a car you depend on taxis, there are no direct buses from the area
  • Few places nearby: dinner often means staying in the apartment
