Shuttle Bus from Catania Airport to Patti

Finding the shuttle bus at Catania Fontanarossa Airport is simple:

1. Exit the arrivals terminal and turn left through the automatic doors.
2. Follow "Terminal Bus" signs posted along the walkway to the coach area.
3. Look for the driver holding the "Autonoleggio Di Paola" sign.

If you cannot find the driver, do not search the whole car park — WhatsApp +39 331 617 2407 (09:00–20:00) or call +39 090 939 1520. We will confirm exactly where the driver is standing.

Have your booking confirmation ready. Patti is the last stop on the route, so the driver needs to ensure everyone is accounted for before the long run begins.

A delayed flight is stressful — especially when Patti is 180 km from the airport and you know the next run is hours away.

If your flight is delayed, WhatsApp +39 331 617 2407 as early as possible. Autonoleggio Di Paola will move you to the next available shuttle bus run to Patti at no extra charge, subject to availability. Because Patti is the last stop, it is worth contacting us as soon as the airline app flags a delay — earlier notice gives us more options.

You can also call +39 090 939 1520 if you prefer to speak directly. We will confirm the new run and updated arrival time so you can plan accordingly.

Autonoleggio Di Paola operates a shared shuttle bus with mandatory advance booking — not a private hire vehicle and not a public bus.

You share the shuttle with other passengers heading to the same destinations, but your seat is reserved and the departure is guaranteed. The route follows a fixed itinerary with planned stops only.

• Shared shuttle bus: €35 per person, fixed timetable, reserved seat — the economical choice for individual travellers and couples.
• Private transfer (NCC): dedicated vehicle for your group, flexible timing, charged per vehicle (€80–130 average for this distance).

The shuttle bus makes most sense for individuals and couples arriving during covered hours. Need a dedicated vehicle? Visit our private hire service.
