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.

Allow about two hours from the airport to the terminal, then the check-in. The ride times leave out the connection at Ostiense, the walk from the station and the wait for the shuttle.

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.

Every passenger needs an identity document at check-in, children included.

Tirrenia shows its lowest fare without naming the class. A seat or a cabin costs more.
