Prepare your Messina journey brief
- Arrival: If your flight uses Reggio Calabria Airport (REG) or Catania-Fontanarossa Airport (CTA), give the airport on your ticket, flight number and arrival date. Add the full Messina hotel or venue address; these airport references do not establish a road route or a collection point.
- An airport arrival with several stops: If your flight is booked at Reggio Calabria Airport (REG), use Reggio Calabria arrival planning and Catania arrival planning for the separate hotel or venue addresses. Say whether the enquiry covers one continuous itinerary or individual local transfers, with passengers and bags for each leg.
- Group and return: Include passengers, luggage and mobility needs. Put any return date, pickup time and departure flight or train in the message field.

Planning your Messina journey
How do REG and CTA compare for a Messina transfer?
Reggio Calabria Airport (REG) is about 16 km from the Messina map reference in a straight line; Catania-Fontanarossa Airport (CTA) is about 91 km. These figures are not road distances. Base the enquiry on the booked flight and actual destination address; road access and collection arrangements are checked separately.
Can one enquiry cover groups landing at different airports near Messina?
List each airport, flight number, arrival time and passenger count separately. If one group lands at REG and another at CTA, say whether they need separate vehicles or whether you want a combined itinerary assessed. Do not assume a single vehicle can meet both schedules.
What happens if the destination after landing is Reggio Calabria?
Use Reggio Calabria as the actual destination rather than entering only Messina as the wider area. Add the hotel or venue address and luggage count so the quote covers the requested end point.
How do the Reggio Calabria and Catania stops compare from Messina?
From the Messina geographic reference, Reggio Calabria is approximately 13.3 km away in a straight line and Catania is 88.8 km away.
