The Insider Advantage for Transit
Your greeter uses deep knowledge of the airport to guide you through the most efficient screening and immigration paths, making the entire process feel smooth and completely effortless.
Relax Between Flights
A layover is an opportunity to recharge. Once transit formalities are cleared, we escort you to your designated airline lounge (based on your ticket or status). You are free to dine or relax while we monitor gate changes, delays, and boarding calls for your onward journey.
What’s Included in Your FCO Transfer Service
Our local experts know the Rome hub inside and out. We handle every step of your transit, turning a busy layover into a calm, effortless experience.

If your bags are not checked through to your final destination, leave the luggage to us. Your greeter will manage up to three pieces per passenger, taking them directly to your next flight’s check-in counter to keep your transit hands-free.

Optimizing Your Passage: Important FCO Details
If you are arriving from a non-Schengen country (like the US or UK) and connecting to a Schengen destination (like Milan or Paris), you must clear passport control in Rome. Your greeter will expertly guide you through the most efficient immigration paths to ensure a smooth entry. If both flights are non-Schengen, you will remain in the international transit zone without clearing customs.
Rome Fiumicino is a modern, expansive airport, and reaching your next gate often requires a scenic walk. Our service provides a dedicated, personal walking escort. While we do not utilize golf carts or buggies, your concierge will pace the journey perfectly to your comfort.
If you booked your flights separately (for example, arriving on Delta and leaving on Ryanair), your bags will not transfer automatically. You will need to officially enter Italy, collect your luggage, and check in again. We highly recommend booking our Porter Service to handle the luggage while we guide you smoothly through passport control and your next check-in.
