Although the nearest international airport is Rimini (RMI, 50 km), the main gateway for the region is the Bologna international airport (BLQ, 80 km). The Bologna airport is conveniently connected with most European capitals and several cities. Low cost airlines also have regular flights from/to Bologna.
