Transport at Orio al Serio
There are several transport services from Bergamo-Orio al Serio airport to the center of Milan: bus, train or taxi.
- As for the train, whose ticket costs around €4, you have to take into account an additional stop to reach the Bergamo train station.
- The K350 bus can take you directly from the airport for €7, but also in this case it will be necessary to take into account an additional change from the terminal at the Central Station to your destination.
- As in most airports, even in Orio al Serio you will be able to take advantage of public taxis when leaving the terminal, which in Milan are a recognizable white color with a luminous sign on the roof. However, the use of public taxis to and from Bergamo airport is one of the least economical modes of transfer: in fact, from any point in the city to the airport, it is necessary to calculate the fare with the meter, which actually starts counting from the moment it is taken, and the fare varies according to travel time, traffic and time of day (also note that the night fare is higher). The route can be very expensive and can also incur long waiting times at the airport because the airport is very far from the city center.
- For this reason, it is advisable to book in advance and enjoy the comfort of a private taxi in Orio al Serio at a fixed price, which allows freezing the cost of transfers to the airport and ensures the reception inside the airport with a sign.
Once in the city, you can move around comfortably with Milanese public transport vehicles: metro, tram, bus, train. In fact, this is the cheapest way to move around Milan: with different types of tickets: a single trip, daily, weekly, monthly, 10 trips, you can travel in any means of the service ATM (Azienda Trasporti Milanesi) in other words Milan's Transport Company in Italian.
The advantages of public transport, as well as the fares, are the timetables: in fact, the vehicles travel almost all day, with alternative replacement routes during the night hours. In particular, the metro is fast and frequent at all times and its 4 lines cover almost the entire area of the city, while moving with trams and buses can be slower at peak times.
It is not recommended to use the car in the city due to traffic, numerous limited traffic areas and infrequent parking, while it is easier to move out of the city center: the city has three ring roads: north, west and east, which form a ring around the city, making it easier to reach the points of interest more on the periphery.
