Itabus’ international debut with Ljubljana and Zagreb lines in October

By Tuesday, 24 September 2024 11:08

The international debut for Itabus will be on 16 October with routes to Ljubljana in Slovenia, and Zagreb in Croatia. 

Itabus is part of the Italo Group

Every day six connections (three outbound and three return) will connect the main Italian cities from Naples, Rome, Florence, Bologna, Ferrara, Padua and Venice, to Trieste, Verona, Milan and Turin with the new foreign destinations, which represent just the first step towards a wider European expansion. The long-distance road transport company is part of the Italo Group and the new bus services will be from Naples and Rome (4 daily trips) and from Turin/Milan (2 daily services). Given the tourist vocation of the destinations, along the route Itabus will also stop at the airports of Venice and Bergamo Orio al Serio. 

A single ticket for rail and bus connections

Departures in the morning will be from Rome at 10 a.m. and from Milan at 8:15 a.m., reaching Ljubljana and Zagreb in the evening, and there will also be overnight trips to optimize travel time. Another solution for those wishing to reach Slovenia and Croatia will be the train+bus interconnections using a single ticket. This means arriving with an Italo train in Venice Mestre and then taking a dedicated Itabus to complete the journey. The return journey is with Itabus as far as Mestre, and then with Italo trains to the rest of Italy. 

Services for Rome and Venice airports

Another innovative feature of the new timetable is the connections with the main Italian airports: in fact Rome Fiumicino and Marco Polo in Venice will join the Itabus network. Fiumicino will be served with 12 services a day, with evening departures (from 7.05 p.m. to 11 p.m.) to reach a capillary network of destinations in central and southern Italy including Pesaro, Ancona, Perugia, 

Naples, Cosenza, Crotone, Bari, Lecce, Brindisi, Taranto, Potenza, Matera among others. Travellers wishing to reach Leonardo da Vinci will find services that will arrive in the airport between 4:05 and 8:45 a.m., thus enabling them to catch early flights. As far as the Venetian airport is concerned, six daily connections will connect the airport with the main cities of northern Italy such as Turin, Milan, Padua and Trieste (in addition to foreign destinations). 

Boosting services in view of the 2025 Jubilee 

Italo-Itabus now has 30 services a day linking the whole of Italy with a single ticket valid for both means of transport. To encourage national and international tourism new stops like Pompei and Trieste stops have been introduced, and services to destinations such as Salerno and Matera have been boosted with the offer also growing in Rome to prepare for the upcoming Jubilee 2025.
