Flying
Brindisi Airport & Bari International Airport
There are two airports you can fly into: Brindisi (30 min from Ostuni) and Bari (1 hour from Ostuni). We've found that Bari has more flight options, but check both!
We recommend flying through Rome, especially if you’re on a tighter schedule. There are many Alitalia flights from Rome to Bari and Brindisi. Note that Rome customs can take a while, so plan your layover accordingly (or, spend a couple days visiting Rome!).
That said, search around for flights that work for you! People are flying through Zurich, Amsterdam, London, and more.

FAQ
Other Details
Will we need to drive to the wedding?
We will provide wedding transportation from four locations:
Ostuni City Center parking lot, Borgo Canonica, Hotel Monte Sargo, and Masserie Maresca.
The venue also has a parking lot for those driving.
Is it scary to drive in Italy?
Nope! They drive on the same side that we do, and the highways in Puglia are easy to navigate. The region does not have the wild roads notoriously found in Rome or the Amalfi Coast.
