  • Status

    ARST runs airport buses between roughly 05:20 and 22:30, useful outside the train's operating hours or when travelling onward on an ARST regional line rather than into central Cagliari by rail.

  • Tickets

    Tap&Tap contactless validators are installed on this line, alongside the usual ticket machines, the Trenitalia app and authorised retailers.

  • Easy to get wrong

    The train is faster and cheaper for a straight airport-to-city trip; the bus mainly matters if a connecting ARST regional coach is the actual destination.
