I will be staying in Lucca for 8 nights at the end of May-June.. What is the best way to get to Lucca from the airport? my flight arrives around 6:30 pm. I understand there is a shuttle from the airport to the Florence train station But I can't find it. It looks like there is also a bus from the airport to Lucca, but the last one is 7:15 pm Not sure we will make it.
thanks
Justine

I did research on this last year. I had wanted to wait to pick up our car as we were leaving Lucca as we weren’t going to use it while we were there. You have three choices. Take the T2 tram into Florence’s Santa Maria Novella train station and take another train or bus to Lucca. Autoline Toscane, Tuscany Region’s bus company directly from the airport to Lucca. Looks like the last one leaves at 7:30pm. https://www.at-bus.it/it/linee-e-orari/regionali-dd
Another option is private car or taxi. I would reach out to your hotel to see if they can recommend someone if you go the private transfer route.
I ended up changing our car rental to pick up at the airport.
