Perugia Airport Guide (PEG) 2026

The basics

Perugia San Francesco d'Assisi (PEG) is one of Italy's smallest airports. Ryanair operates to London Stansted and a few seasonal routes. 12km from Perugia center. Named after Umbria's most famous saint (Assisi is 25 min away).

Getting to Perugia

Bus: Sulga bus to Perugia center (€3-4, 20-30 min). Limited to flight times.

Taxi: €25-30, 15-20 min.

Realistic access to Umbria

PEG has very limited flights. Most visitors reach Umbria via: Rome Fiumicino (train to Orvieto 70 min, Perugia 2.5h), Florence (train to Perugia 2h), or Bologna (train to Perugia 2-2.5h). If PEG has your route, great — it saves hours. If not, don't force it.

💡 Umbria needs a car. Perugia, Assisi, Orvieto, Spoleto, Gubbio, Norcia, Todi, Montefalco — the hill towns are the attraction, and they're connected by winding roads through green valleys. Rent a car at PEG or at the larger Rome/Florence airports and drive in. The driving itself is part of the Umbrian experience.
