Rome Fiumicino Airport. Photo: SHUTTERSTOCK Anyone planning to arrive by car at Fiumicino Airport in Rome, whether in a rental car or accompanied by family and friends, can save time and money by familiarizing themselves in advance with parking options and access to the terminals.
For dropping off passengers, the airport operates the Kiss & Go complex, which offers free parking for up to 15 minutes near the terminal entrances. In addition, in front of Terminal 1 there is a parking lot that allows up to 45 minutes free of charge. In the event of longer delays, you can use the long-term parking lot, where the first two hours are free of charge, along with a free shuttle service to the terminals.R
Car rental company complexes are concentrated in the multi-story parking buildings adjacent to the terminals, in areas marked A, B, C, and D.
At the entrance to the airport, follow the Autonoleggi signs or the car with the key symbol, which lead directly to the car return areas. Each rental company has its own designated area, from where you can walk to the terminals via covered and escalators.
In the event of difficulty locating the rental company, it is recommended to have the phone number of the branch at the airport in advance, in order to receive accurate directions.
The airport operates an assistance service for passengers with disabilities or reduced mobility (PRM Assistance), which can be booked through the airline at least 48 hours before the flight or directly at the airport.
Yellow call posts are placed throughout the parking lots and terminals, through which you can call a service representative to assist with escorting, transferring luggage, and reaching the boarding gate.
In addition, holders of an official disability badge, including international badges, are entitled to free parking in the airport parking lots, subject to presenting the disability badge, parking ticket, and ID at the customer service desk before departure.
To manage your parking, you can use the easy Parking app, which allows you to check space availability and pay directly from your phone. The Rome Airports app provides navigation within the terminals, real-time flight information, and quick access to airport services.
It is also worth knowing that the luggage carts throughout the terminals and parking lots are available for use free of charge, unlike many airports in Europe.
Parking rates beyond the free parking times vary depending on the season and demand, so it is recommended to check the updated prices on the airport website or app before arrival.
