Shuttle Bus from Catania Airport to Milazzo

When you land at Catania Fontanarossa, follow these three steps to find the shuttle bus:

1. Exit the arrivals terminal and turn left as soon as you are through the automatic doors.
2. Follow the "Terminal Bus" signs — they are clearly visible and lead you to the coach waiting area, a short walk from the terminal building.
3. Look for the driver holding a sign that reads "Autonoleggio Di Paola". They will be waiting for you.

Cannot find the driver? Do not worry. Before searching everywhere, send a WhatsApp message to +39 331 617 2407 (available 09:00–20:00) or call +39 090 939 1520. We will tell you exactly where to go.

Have your booking confirmation ready on your phone or printed — it speeds up boarding. Remember the shuttle bus is shared, so make your way to the Terminal Bus area promptly but without rushing.

Flight delayed? It happens. Autonoleggio Di Paola is set up to handle it.

There is no fixed delay tolerance — the system works on a "next available run" basis. If you miss your booked shuttle bus because of a flight delay, contact us on WhatsApp at +39 331 617 2407 as soon as you know. We will move you onto the next available run to Milazzo at no extra charge, subject to seat availability.

Do not wait until you have landed to let us know. If the airline app already shows a two-hour delay, send us a message straight away — the more notice we have, the easier it is to rearrange. You can also call +39 090 939 1520 if you prefer to speak to someone directly.

We know the anxiety of landing late and not knowing whether you will make your connection to Milazzo Porto in time for a ferry. That is exactly why we try to stay reachable and responsive throughout the day.

People often ask: "Is this a private taxi or a scheduled coach?" It is neither. Autonoleggio Di Paola runs a shared shuttle bus with mandatory advance booking.

You share the vehicle with other passengers on the same route, but your seat is reserved and the run is guaranteed. It is not a public bus that stops everywhere — it follows a fixed route with a handful of planned stops.

• Shared shuttle bus: €25 per person, set timetable, reserved seat — great for solo travellers or couples arriving during covered hours.
• Private transfer (NCC): dedicated vehicle for you and your group, fully flexible timing, charged per vehicle (€60–120 average for this route).

The shuttle bus makes the most sense when you are travelling alone or as a couple and your flight lands at a covered time. For groups of 4 or more, or unusual arrival times, private hire may be worth it. Need a dedicated vehicle? Visit our private hire service page.
