Are there group flights?

Each student must make their own travel arrangements. Study Abroad Italy has arranged with Waldorf Travel to offer Apicius students the lowest available student priced tickets. You will find these ticket prices to match or be lower than any other student priced fares available. When ordering your tickets notify the agent that you are attending Apicius. Since the number of student priced tickets are limited, contact Waldorf Travel as soon as possible to make your arrangements.We recommend flying into the Florence airport. To do this requires transfering flights in another European city, but is well worth the convenience once you arrive. Pisa airport would be a second choice, since trains leave regularly from the Pisa airport and arrive in downtown Florence 45 minutes later. Arriving in Rome may save a bit on airfare but requires roughly a half day to make your way to Florence by train. The same is true about arriving in Milan.We suggest you arrive in Italy with $200 dollars already converted to Euro, in order to pay for a taxi, train, food or other immediate needs. Since students should have already made arrangements with their landlord regarding the time and date of their arrival, you can take a taxi from the airport directly to your housing. This will cost roughly the equivalent of $25-30 US, and if you do not speak Italian you can hand the driver a written address.
