Cinque Terre Train connection-noon flight/Pisa

Our flight out of Pisa is at noon and we are hoping to have sufficient time to make the connection from Vernazza to Pisa. Are we being unrealistic to stay in C.T. the night before flying out of Pisa at noon?

I brought this up in another post about our itinerary, and a couple people posted that we may be pushing the envelope to make out noon flight. We would like to know if anyone else has made this connection in the same time frame. When we orignally made our plans we were under the impression that there's so many trains to Pisa it wouldn't be an issue. Thank you.

With your flight at noon, you are just fine. Your looking at a 2.0hr. train ride to Pisa.

CLICK HERE to see the morning train schedule. I would suggest the 6:36am train to make sure you are there on time. You will change trains at La Spezia. You have 16 minutes to jump into the McDonalds and get something to take with you on the train.

The airport at Pisa is one of only 3 in Italy that has an express train from the airport to the main train station. For this train, it's a 5-minute trip from the station to the airport.
