Rome Airport Transfer — Private NCC Service to & from FCO and CIA
- Fixed prices from €70 (Ciampino) and €80 (Fiumicino) — no meters, no surge pricing

Rome has two international airports and one persistent problem: getting into the city without overpaying or standing in a taxi queue for 40 minutes. Black Cabs Rome has run licensed private transfers between both airports and the city centre since 2009. Fixed rates, Mercedes vehicles, and a driver who tracks your flight. That’s the whole offer.
Private Airport Transfer Rome — Fiumicino (FCO) & Ciampino (CIA)
Rome’s two main airports handle over 50 million passengers per year (Aeroporti di Roma, 2023), yet reliable ground transport remains the most common complaint among first-time visitors. A licensed NCC private transfer solves that directly: one vehicle, one driver, one fixed price, door to door.
Fiumicino (FCO) sits roughly 32 km southwest of central Rome — transfer time 35 to 55 minutes depending on traffic. Ciampino (CIA) is closer at about 15 km southeast, but GRA ring-road congestion can extend journey times. Both routes are covered at fixed rates with no hidden fees.
Fixed Prices — No Meters, No Surprises
NCC operators in Italy must charge pre-agreed flat rates by law (Ministero delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti, Legislative Decree 285/1992). No traffic supplements, no night fees, no extras for delayed flights.
| Route | Mercedes Berlina (up to 3 pax) |
Mercedes Minivan (up to 7 pax) |
|---|---|---|
| Rome Centre ↔ Fiumicino (FCO) | €80 | €100 |
| Rome Centre ↔ Ciampino (CIA) | €70 | €90 |
| Prices include VAT, tolls, and meet & greet. No supplements for night arrivals or flight delays. | ||
For groups of three or more, an NCC minivan consistently costs less per person than multiple taxis — and arrives together.
What’s Included in Your Rome Airport Transfer
Meet & Greet at Arrivals
Your driver waits inside the terminal with a name board. For Fiumicino, the meeting point is the arrivals hall of your terminal (T1, T2, or T3). For Ciampino, it’s the main arrivals exit. You don’t search for a car — the car finds you.
Flight Tracking
Drivers monitor your flight in real time. If your plane lands 90 minutes late, your driver adjusts automatically. No extra charge, no need to call ahead — standard, not a premium add-on.
Vehicle & Luggage
The berlina (Mercedes E-Class) seats 3 passengers with standard suitcases. The minivan (Mercedes V-Class) seats up to 7 with full luggage capacity. Both vehicles are air-conditioned and maintained to professional NCC standards.

Fiumicino vs Ciampino: Which Airport Are You Flying Into?
Fiumicino handles roughly 80% of Rome’s air traffic and serves most long-haul and major European carriers. Ciampino is smaller, used mainly by Ryanair and Wizz Air, and sits closer to the city.
Fiumicino (FCO) — Leonardo da Vinci Airport
Three passenger terminals (T1, T2, T3) plus satellite T5 for intercontinental flights. Confirm your terminal when booking. Distance from central Rome: ~32 km. Transfer time: 35–55 min.
Ciampino (CIA) — G.B. Pastine Airport
Single terminal, simpler layout. Distance from central Rome: ~15 km. Transfer time: 25–45 min. Most Ryanair flights to Rome use Ciampino. Note: the GRA ring road at rush hour (07:00–09:30 and 17:00–20:00) can make a 15 km Ciampino transfer take as long as a 32 km Fiumicino transfer mid-morning — build in buffer time.
