Naples airport closed through Nov. 30 for runway works

Naples-Capodichino International Airport (NAP) is closed to passenger flights throughout November as crews carry out runway and taxiway rehabilitation work.

The closure, running from Nov. 1 to 30, 2026, means no commercial flights will arrive at or depart from the airport during that period. 

Airport operator GESAC said the €30-million project includes runway reconstruction and upgrades to airfield lighting systems.

According to GESAC, some flights have been temporarily transferred to Salerno Costa d’Amalfi e del Cilento Airport (QSR), which is offering connections to 15 domestic and international destinations during November. 

These include Amsterdam, Barcelona, Madrid and Paris.

Special bus services are operating between Naples Piazza Garibaldi and Salerno Airport, with increased bus frequency between the airport and Salerno railway station. 

Fixed-fare shared taxi services are also available between Salerno Airport and the main railway stations in Naples and Salerno.

Travel advisors with clients scheduled to fly through Naples this month should confirm arrangements directly with airlines, including any cancellations or changes to departure and arrival airports. 

Travellers should also allow additional time for ground transfers.
