Sobre Brindisi Airport

Brindisi Airport (BDS) is the airport for Brindisi, Lecce and the Salento peninsula, at the southern end of Puglia in Italy. Its official Italian name is Aeroporto del Salento, and it is also known as Papola Casale, after the district where it stands. It handled about 3.4 million passengers in 2024.

Ryanair flies the most routes, to cities across Italy and Europe, alongside ITA Airways, which links Brindisi with Rome Fiumicino and Milan Linate. easyJet, Swiss, Wizz Air and Eurowings fly year-round, and in summer British Airways, Aer Lingus, Brussels Airlines, Transavia, Volotea and other airlines add routes from London, Dublin, Brussels, Paris and more.

All flights use one terminal, with arrivals and baggage claim on the ground floor and security and the departure gates on the first floor.

The airport stands about 6 km (4 miles) north of Brindisi city center and its port, a 10 to 15 minute drive. From here, travelers head south to Lecce, about 40 km away, and the beaches and towns of the Salento, or northwest to Ostuni and the countryside masserie of the Adriatic coast.

Consejos de llegada a Brindisi Airport

Flights from Italy and other Schengen countries arrive without passport checks. If you come from outside the Schengen area, such as the UK, you line up at passport control, where non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES).

Brindisi has one terminal, so there is no terminal to choose. Baggage claim and customs lead into the arrivals hall on the ground floor, where you find ATMs, tourist information and the car rental desks. In summer the terminal gets busy, so allow extra time at baggage claim.

Official taxis wait outside the arrivals exit. The STP Brindisi airport bus runs to Brindisi railway station, the city center and the port, and Pugliairbus coaches leave for Lecce and Taranto a few times a day. Pre-booked drivers usually meet you in the arrivals hall.

Italy is on Central European Time and uses the euro.

Transporte terrestre

The STP bus is the cheap way into Brindisi; for Lecce, Ostuni or a masseria with luggage, a taxi or pre-booked car saves changes and waiting.

    STP Brindisi runs an airport bus about every 30 minutes, from early morning until around midnight, to Brindisi railway station, the city center and the Costa Morena port. The station is about 10 to 15 minutes away, and trains continue to Lecce and Bari.

  • Pugliairbus to Lecce

    COTRAP's Pugliairbus coaches link the airport with Lecce in about 40 minutes, and with Taranto and Bari airport. There are only a few departures a day, so check the timetable before you land.

  • Taxi from Brindisi airport

    Official taxis wait outside the arrivals exit and reach Brindisi city center in 10 to 15 minutes. Longer trips to Lecce or Ostuni are charged by the meter or agreed before you set off.

  • Car rental

    Several international and local car rental companies have desks in the arrivals area, and the SS379 highway runs past the airport toward Ostuni and Bari and south toward Lecce.

  • Private transfer

    A pre-booked driver meets you in the arrivals hall and drives straight to your address in Brindisi, Lecce, Ostuni or the countryside, which suits families, groups and late arrivals.
