NAPLES AIRPORT NAP – CAPODICHINO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IN ITALY

Naples Airport, also known as Capodichino Airport (IATA: NAP) . It’s well organized and connected to the Center of the City with public transportation. Naples Airport located 5.9 km north-northeast of the city in the Capodichino district of Naples. A large number of facilities are available at Naples Airport for the people who come here. It is important to keep in mind that this is not a large airport and it has only one terminal. This terminal is responsible for handling the domestic flights as well as international flights.

Many people who travel to Italy for a vacation like to visit the biggest cities including Rome and Milan, but Naples is another large metropolis that you should consider if you want a great place for things to see and do. This centuries-old city has plenty to offer whether you’re looking for great sightseeing of monuments from yesteryear such as the site of the Pompeii volcanic eruption, or some of the best restaurants open today in the place that invented pizza.

Thankfully getting to Naples from most countries around the world is simple because the city has a dedicated airport, known as Naples International Airport, that processes almost 10 million passengers per year. They get to experience state-of-the-art facilities spread across two central terminals that cater to a wide range of airlines serving destinations local and international. Among the most popular destinations that people travel to and from via Naples International Airport are many European cities and airports, such as Milan, London, Munich, Barcelona airport, and a host of other Italian destinations including Venice, Rome airport, Turin and Bergamo.

Naples International Airport is known by two codes used for airport travel; its International Air Transport Association code is NAP while its International Civil Aviation Organization is LIRN, so if you’re shopping for flights then you can try putting both codes in when asked for an airport. That also explains why you will see NAP or LIRN printed on your flight tickets.

The airport started in 1943 when it was used as an airfield for the military during World War Two. It was useful to the military effort because of its close proximity to Naples, being located roughly 2.3 miles (or 5.9 kilometers) from the city. These days that short distance to Naples is just as useful, but now that proximity benefits tourist and business travelers instead.
