> We bought the transfer from Fiumicino to Rome Termini for two people. The purchase process was clear and the price was the same as at the ticket office, with no extra charge. > > One detail worth knowing: the QR code is only released 24 hours before the trip, so you have to download it the day before and not leave it until you get to the airport. Knowing this, everything was straightforward — you just scan it and get on. > > The train left on time and in 32 minutes we were at Termini, a five-minute walk from the hotel. Arriving from Mexico after a twelve-hour flight, getting off the plane and not having to figure anything else out was exactly what we needed. We would buy it again.

The service was seamless once you get through customs just follow the signs to the train and enjoy the stress free ride to Roma termini. Ensure your ticket is validated as an on board inspector will come around to check. No issues train is busy as it is popular so you may have to stand which I did but again not an issue as it's quick ride to destination.

This direct connection about every 15 minutes is very useful. Very well signposted at the airport, it allows you to reach Rome's Termini station. If you have an online ticket, it is validated directly, but if you have a paper ticket, you need to stamp it. We also took it on the way back, as taxis or buses are dependent on traffic.

It was amazing! Unfortunately, I don't have any photos of it. The staff was very helpful and very friendly. We were helped well with finding the tickets on our phones, and when we arrived much too early, they very kindly rebooked us! Thank you very much.

The station is quite chaotic. It is not very well signposted where everything departs from. In our case, the board only showed that it departed from platform 24 five minutes before departure. Otherwise, I think it is cheap and it definitely gets there on time. I think this is more reliable than the bus.

Great service, but more protection is needed during strikes I use this service regularly and, in general, my experience is always very positive: the trains are extremely comfortable, the service is efficient, the cars are clean and, above all, the connections are fast and punctual. Unfortunately, during my last trip, an unpleasant situation occurred upon arrival at the airport. I had already purchased in advance all the tickets needed to reach my final destination, but the trip coincided with an international strike. As a result, I didn't get any refund and was forced to spend the entire night at the airport. I realize that this inconvenience does not depend directly on the company, but is a broader issue affecting the rail sector internationally. However, it would be essential to have an alternative or a "plan B" in similar circumstances: for example, allowing passengers to use the same ticket to board replacement buses, ensuring they can at least reach the central station or the relevant terminal.
