The conference will be held in the ancient building of via Mezzocannone 8 of the Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II. The place is in the hearth of the inner city and close to the railway station of Napoli. Once inside the bulding from the entrance in via Mezzocannone 8, proceed straight up, the go left and take the elevator to the fourth floor, then go to the right. At the end of the hallway you will find the room M3 in which the conference is held.
Note that Naples has one airport: Napoli Capodichino. The airport is about 20 minutes by car from downtown Naples, but the metro does not run all the way to the airport. You must take a taxi or the “Alibus” airport shuttle to get between the city and the airport.
Taking a Taxi from the Airport to Naples
The taxi stand is at the arrivals exit at the airport; licensed taxis are parked in a row and are white. Do not take a taxi from those who solicit business from inside the airport terminal as they are not licensed taxi drivers. Once you are on board, request the fixed airport fare immediately; the fixed fare for the city center should be between EUR 18 and EUR 25, depending upon your final destination. The taxi fares are displayed on the front seat back, so you can check the prices.
Taking the Alibus Airport Shuttle from Capodichino to Downtown Naples
Alibus is the shuttle bus service that runs between the airport and Piazza Garibaldi and the port in central Naples.
A ticket costs EUR 5 and can be purchased online, on board or at the info point in the arrivals area of the airport.
The stop you should take is "Piazza Garibaldi (Stazione Centrale train station)": the stop is on the corner of Via Novara across from the McDonald's. When you are at Stazione Centrale, you need to take Metro Line 1 and exit at "Università" (it is the second stop).
Both the train station and the port are currently undergoing construction work, so the bus stops may be moved. If you are not sure where to get on, ask at a nearby bar as they are always updated on where the stop is located. In high season, give yourself ample time to catch the bus from the city center to the station, especially if you are getting on at Piazza Garibaldi; buses often arrive full and you may have to wait for the next one to find a seat.
