Taxi, fixed airport fareorBus4Fly coach to Florence?

The short answer

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The Taxi, fixed airport fare reaches Pisa Centrale station and the old city; the Bus4Fly coach to Florence does not. This goes to Florence, about 70 km away, not into Pisa. It runs about twelve times a day, through the night: at two in the morning you can leave for Florence but not for Pisa Centrale, two kilometres away.

The Taxi, fixed airport fare is quicker: 10 min against 1 h 10.

Taxi, fixed airport fare: hours not recorded. Bus4Fly coach to Florence: Runs all night.

At two people this is probably cheaper than the shuttle — EUR 10.60 against EUR 13.00.

But ask first. The published supplements for night, luggage and the fourth passenger onwards do not say whether they apply to this fixed fare, so agree the price before you set off.

It may legally carry up to eight passengers, so a family or a group should compare it against eight shuttle tickets at EUR 52.00.

Piazza del Duomo — for the Leaning Tower — has its own fixed fare of EUR 14.20.

Between midnight and 06:00 this is the only way into Pisa at all.

Take an early departure if the price matters. The 06:40 was EUR 3.99 every day checked; the late-night services were EUR 13.99 almost every day.

It runs through the night, which the shuttle into Pisa does not.

For Pisa itself this is the wrong service entirely — it goes to another city.
