Surely a prebooked car at around €100 one way would be easier ?

We've booked a hire car now just in case. Can cancel it and get the train if the strike is called off/our 07:00 train to Naples is running
What train are you getting at 7am from Naples and how do I find out what trains are running ?!

Do we know if the Italo bullet trains are impacted by strikes?
Can’t see anything online and my insane cheapest current option is Bristol to Venice and bullet train to Rome

PM me!
Not sure if mentioned elsewhere but the Leonardo express which links Roma Termini to FCO Airport is not affected by the strike, service guaranteed

No idea, but that's what we're doing, so please.let me know if you find out.
TBH depending on how Saturday pans out, (40 shots, 3 on target, losing 1-0) there's every chance I'll be looking forward to that train ride more than the game!

Ha, another long-haul train traveller!
Oh yeah, very much looking forward to a few beers on a decent train on that route, should be bloody splendid!
You can’t currently because you’re new.How do I pm you?!
Give me 10 minutes and you’ll see an envelope icon towards the top right of the screen.
We’re on the 7:40 to Naples Friday. Only plan B we can see is taxi, there are four of us so makes it a bit more bearable. If trains do go wrong I’ll drop details on here of what we do, costs etc
The service, which is guaranteed even in the event of a strike (potentially with a replacement bus service), runs from Roma Termini from 05:20 until 22:35, and from Fiumicino Airport from 06:08 until 23:23.Not sure if mentioned elsewhere but the Leonardo express which links Roma Termini to FCO Airport is not affected by the strike, service guaranteed

I suspect the replacement bus service won’t be 32 minutes!
I just saw this thread, so I'm in a bit of a panic now! Can someone fill me in on the Rome to Naples transport situation? Are there any trains running? Google says there are private buses running between the two cities on the 8th but I wonder if I can trust they'll turn up. Luckily, I am flying out of Naples on the 9th, but I was planning on going there for a Napoli v Torino match on the 8th. Any help would be greatly appreciated NSC

And why not? After all, it could be your best chance of seeing a striker.
you’re lucky you are flying on the 9th! I’m due out of Naples at 1145am on 8th - still trying to work out a plan b from Rome to Naples. which private buses are running ?
Hi Mate!
Me and my dad are on the 12:05 out of Naples on the Friday.
I have booked an ITAbus as a back up from Rome bus station, incase the trains aren’t running. Not sure if you have any other options for a plan B just incase the busses are effected as well
