SIT Bus Shuttle coachorFL1, FL5, port shuttle and Grimaldi ferry to Cagliari?
The short answer
These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The SIT Bus Shuttle coach reaches Roma Termini and the historic center; the FL1, FL5, port shuttle and Grimaldi ferry to Cagliari does not. This goes on by overnight ferry to Cagliari in Sardinia. You change trains at Roma Ostiense or Trastevere, walk from Civitavecchia station to the port and ride the free port shuttle to Terminal ADM.
The SIT Bus Shuttle coach is quicker: 1 h 15 against 17 h 15. The FL1, FL5, port shuttle and Grimaldi ferry to Cagliari varies between 910 and 1035 minutes.
SIT Bus Shuttle coach: 07:15–01:15. FL1, FL5, port shuttle and Grimaldi ferry to Cagliari: hours not recorded.

Not non-stop: the coach also calls at Via Aurelia and the Vatican before Termini, so it can take much longer than a direct transfer — from about 45 minutes late at night to around 90 minutes at busier times.
Buying at the stop instead of online costs EUR 2 more each way.

One boat on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at 20:00, landing at 09:00 or 11:00 the next day; the timetable is published to 31 December. Leave the airport by about 16:30 to be at the terminal by 19:00.
Be at Terminal ADM an hour before departure, with an identity document for every passenger, children included.
Take the free shuttle from the Fortezza stop, by Forte Michelangelo, to Terminal ADM. It is not the cruise shuttle, which does not stop at the ferry docks.
