How to get to Sicily by direct flight from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Rome, Milan, Naples

Getting to Sicily is very easy - in most cases a plane will suit you. Direct flights are from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Rome and other major cities of Italy. You can also take a ferry from Naples, the neighboring islands of Sardinia or Malta. Consider all options and ticket prices.

From Moscow

Direct flights from Moscow Sheremetyevo Airport to Palermo and Catania on Saturdays from April 01, 2017 are operated by Alitalia.

A one-way ticket for a direct flight costs about 15,000 rubles, travel time 4 hours 15 minutes. A couple of thousand can be saved if you fly with a transfer in Rome, then the road to Sicily will take about 7 hours - then everyone decides how much his time is worth. I advise you to buy tickets on the official website www.alitalia.com especially since they have a Russian version.

Starting from April 27, 2017, S7 Airlines also operates direct flights to Catania from Moscow Domodedovo Airport every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday.

The cost of tickets, including regular baggage of 23 kg, starts at 10,000 rubles.
