Travel Information

If you come by plane, there are several options. One option is to book a flight to Rome Fiumicino (FCO); a second option is to flight to Rome Ciampino (CIA). We suggest flighting to Rome Fiumicino airport because it has a better organization and services such as a direct shuttle to Rome Termini - Leonardo Express and a regular train service.

Rome is reachable by train from everywhere in Europe. The timetable of trains is available online at www.trenitalia.it. Tickets can be bought online at www.trenitalia.it, as well. This online booking system is very efficient and easy to use. The main train station is called "Roma Termini" which is at walking distance from the conference location. Immediately out of the station ( Piazza dei Cinquecento) there is a taxi station. The only authorized taxes in Italy are those that have a clear sign "TAXI" on top of the car. All the others are not official and must not be used.

Using the metro system is very convenient to reach the conference venue. Rome has two METRO lines: Line A and Line B. The closest stop to the conference venue is METRO A: "Barberini".
If you use the metro system, you need a metro ticket (1 euro) which can be bought in all the stations (procedure to buy: 1. select the language, 2. select the number of tickets that you want to buy, 3. put the cash, the machine gives change, wait a while, take tickets; be aware of the fact that there will be people begging for money in the proximity of the machine).
To enter metro stations, a 1 euro ticket can be used only once. However, the same ticket can be used for riding every bus/train in the city for 75 minutes. There exist more convenient tickets lasting one day and one week. Tickets can be bought at "Tabacchi" (cigarette shops) and "Giornali" (newspaper stands).
