The Pre-booked private transfer is quicker: 20 min against 1 h 05. The Bus 16 and bus 50 to the port varies between 50 and 65 minutes.
Pre-booked private transfer: Runs all night. Bus 16 and bus 50 to the port: 07:15–22:00.

The cheapest way, and the slowest: about an hour and a quarter with the change.
Bus 50 is a circle: take it from the stop "Bari Centrale (B)" on Piazza Aldo Moro, outside the station, and get off at Terminal Crociere for the cruise ships or Stazione Marittima for the ferries.
Nothing runs on bus 50 before 07:15 or after 22:00; take a taxi then.
