The official language of Italy is Italian. English is
understood in the larger cities but not in the more remote parts of
the country.
The Euro (EUR) is the official currency, which is divided into
100 cents. Those arriving in Italy with foreign currency can obtain
Euros through any bank, ATM or bureaux de change. ATMs are
widespread. Travellers cheques can be exchanged with ease in the
large cities, not so in the smaller towns. Credit cards are
accepted in upmarket establishments and shops around the cities.
Banks are closed on weekends, but tend to have better rates than
casas de cambios.
A shuttle bus service transports passengers between the two
terminals every 20 minutes, which you can also use to get into the
