The Leonardo Express made traveling between Fiumicino Airport and Rome Termini Station smooth and stress-free. Purchasing the ticket online was quick and straightforward, and I appreciated the flexibility — I had bought my ticket a day before but was able to take an earlier train without any hassle. The process of changing to an earlier time was easily managed on the spot. The train was clean, comfortable, and punctual. It has luggage space free of charge. It’s a convenient, reliable option for solo or first-time travelers arriving in Rome. It was a bit packed, but still managed to get a seat (free searing). I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a fast, direct connection between the airport and city center.

The Leonardo Express was a great way to get to the centre of Rome from Fiunicino airport. I was a little concerned about having to specify exactly what time train we would catch as its difficult to gauge how long it will take to get through passport control and baggage reclaim. Fortunatley the e-ticket booking system allows you to change the time so long as you do it before your booked service has departed. I made use of this feature to catch an earlier train than originally booked. You can buy your ticket on the day at the train station but there were crowds at the ticket machines. I'd use this service again when travelling to Rome.

Although my experience with using the Leonardo Express was a good one, my experience using the booking system was not. In my haste to book a ticket for the following day, I did not see that the system had defaulted the direction of my travel to Airport to Termini. It wasn't until I was trying to scan my tickets for myself and my travel companion that I realised the error. This was a costly episode as I then had to book additional tickets so that we didn't miss our train and our flight.

    The booking system is very convenient — it allows us to reserve train tickets right before departure, and the ability to change departure times is excellent. This flexibility is especially helpful in case of flight delays or unexpected situations. The train between the airport and the city is very fast, bringing great convenience to our trip. We will definitely choose this train again for future visits.

    Following a memorable trip with my siblings to Italy you provided a final trip to the airport. We said tearful goodbye as we parted but look forward to our return to wonderful Italy!
