Trenitalia, Italy’s primary train operator, connects Pisa International Airport with Florence’s train station Santa Maria Novella. Trains run between the two cities several times a day and it takes approximately an hour. The price of a one-way journey is 15.90 (US$ 18.11).

Taxi

Since Pisa Airport is located about 100 kilometers from Florence, taking a taxi isn't a particularly good option. It's more expensive than hiring a transfer service.
