A serene location nestled in the beautiful province of Forlì-Cesena, Forlì Airport, also known as Luigi Ridolfi airport, offers easy access to the inspiring sights and sounds of Italy's Emilia-Romagna region. With architecture rich in history and a cuisine as tantalising as it is unique, there's plenty to look forward to.

This might seem like a daunting challenge at first for Brits, but all it takes is a little practice and attentiveness. To make navigation easier, consider choosing a car class with GPS installed.

Remember, pre-booking online often allows for the best deals and ensures your choice of car is ready and waiting.
Fuel Up Before You Go
Upon leaving the airport, the nearest petrol station is just a minute's drive away. It's worth noting petrol stations in Italy operate a self-service, so familiarise yourself with the Italian words for 'diesel' ('diesel' or 'gasolio') and 'unleaded' ('senza piombo').
Drive into the Heart of Emilia-Romagna
From Forlì Airport, the city of Forlì is just a 10-minute drive away, rich in history and full of culinary delights. Alternatively, take a 30-minute drive to the city of Ravenna, famed for its stunning mosaics and UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
