at Rome Ostiense station. Here it is possible to access the subway
(metropolitana) at the Piramide stop (B line which intersects the A line at
the Termini stop). A train leaves every 20 minutes from 5.30 am to midnight.
There are also buses which depart from Fiumicino airport and go to the Air
terminal in Via Giolitti, adjacent to the Termini station.
