Turin

Terminals & passenger flow

The airport uses a single terminal for all flights. It is small enough that you can walk from check-in to the departure gates without waiting for shuttle buses or transit trains.

The ground floor handles arrivals, baggage claim, customs, and transport connections. The first floor holds the check-in desks. Security and boarding gates are on the second floor. Past security, the terminal splits into Schengen and non-Schengen zones. Both areas have the usual mix of duty-free shops, cafes, and food outlets, plus the Piemonte passenger lounge.

Winter airlines & connectivity

Turin broke the five-million passenger mark in 2025 – largely driven by budget airlines.

Ryanair dominates the tarmac here. They hold more than half the market share and fly to over 35 destinations. Wizz Air is the second-largest operator and opened a major base at the airport in 2026. You will also see regular flights from easyJet, Volotea, and Vueling, with Jet2.com stepping in for the winter ski season. Traditional carriers like ITA Airways, Air France, KLM, and British Airways link Turin to major European hubs.

Into Turin city

The Turin–Ceres railway connects the airport directly to the Torino Porta Susa station. The train journey takes approximately 30 minutes.

If you prefer the road, regional buses run into central Turin. Taxis wait outside the arrivals hall 24 hours a day, and the drive into the city centre takes 20 to 30 minutes, depending on traffic.

Baggage, skis & special items

If you are flying with skis or snowboards, you need to drop them at the out-of-gauge baggage counters after checking in at the main desks. When you land in Turin, oversized sports equipment arrives on dedicated belts in the reclaim hall, separate from the standard luggage carousels.

Parking & airside facilities

The airport has a multi-storey car park connected directly to the terminal, along with several open-air lots for longer stays.

Past security, there are the usual duty-free shops, cafes, and regional food outlets. If you want to escape the main departure gates, the airport has the Piemonte Lounge available for passengers.

Alpine destinations within reach

Turin is one of the easiest airports for reaching the Italian and French Alps. The drive is straightforward. You can usually reach the Via Lattea resorts in about an hour and a half, while the Aosta Valley takes closer to two hours.
