Car Hire Bari Airport - Mini guide to Bari Airport

Centrally located on the coast of the Apulia region, Bari Airport has in recent years become increasingly popular with summer charter flights from all over Europe. The bulk of visitors arrive from the UK and Germany.

The single passenger terminal has limited facilities, however there is a bank as well as ATM machines conveniently located within.

There are few shopping opportunities within the airport, with just a couple of outlets selling the usual range of duty-free and regular last minute items. Hungry passengers are best advised to eat before travelling to the airport, although there is a bar/café that serves light meals and refreshments, as well as a few vending machines providing snacks and drinks.

Business visitors wishing to hold meetings at the airport itself should contact the airport for more information and reservations. There is one meeting room that can be reserved and equipped to suit visitors’ needs.

Those who require special assistance or wheelchairs should notify their airlines when booking their flight. Specially fitted toilets, ramps and lifts are located across the airport. Car parking is provided by specially designated areas opposite the terminal.

The airport information booth is centrally located and can assist visitors with baggage services, lost property, and tourist information.
