Rare Thisguylikestocruise Posted February 27 #1 Share Posted February 27 Did a mock booking for 2 adults cruise port to Florence. I was thinking of disembarking Odyssey OTS around 8am. Is 18 minutes enough time to connect for the next train in Rome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisemom42 Posted February 27 #2 Share Posted February 27 It's not an overly generous amount of time but it should be okay as you're on the Frecce train from Civitavecchia so you'll be arriving without the long walk to the main platforms (which occurs with the Regional trains from Civi). My question to you would be: what are you going to do in Civi until 11:25? Most ships kick you off around 9-9:30 at latest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some earlier options were for a connection in Pisa and with a longer travel time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted February 27 #4 Share Posted February 27 You're not on an official web site, that's a third party. For your own convenience, use only the train operator sites to purchase tickets.

euro cruiser Posted February 27 #5 Share Posted February 27 Why wait for the 11:25 Frecce from Civitavecchia? There's one every day at 9:25 (arrives 10:18). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted February 27 #6 Share Posted February 27 If you book entirely through Trenitalia and go for the 9:25 Frecce from Civitavecchia you'd be in Florence (S.M. Novella) at 12:11. Trenitalia allows just 17 minutes between trains, as both use the main track head so it would be a short, fast walk from one to the other. You could force a longer gap if you want one by booking a later train to Florence, the next Frecce would be at 10:50, arriving at 12:27. You could also look to book the Rome to Florence segment with Italotreno, they have departures at 10:40 (arrives 12:17) or at 10:55 (arrives 12:31).

Rare alserrod Posted February 28 #7 Share Posted February 28 I would always choose an official web, even using google translator, instead of a third web Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I choose the 9:25 departure, I should probably get off the ship by 8 I’m guessing. Looks like I need to walk 15 minutes or take a bus if it’s available.

euro cruiser Posted February 28 #9 Share Posted February 28 That will be more than enough time. Depending on where your ship is berthed, you may not be allowed to walk. If you are at the new terminal it's about a mile and a half on foot to the train station. Or, for 6 euro, you can use the Port Mobility shuttle bus from the terminal directly to the train station.
