We’re planning a Sept trip to southern Italy and are having difficulty identifying the best way to get from Lecce to Sicily. Any ideas?

I am reminded of the joke "You can't get there from here".
You can do it, but not quickly, and not as easy as a direct train. There are trains, with one to three changes, taking most of the day (7 or 8 hours, maybe more) to Messina. Trenitalia has a number of solutions.
A bus might shorten that, probably not by much. Do not really see any good flight option, but did not look in depth (Maybe Brindisi to Palermo or Catania, with a change someplace?)

It looks like flights from both Brindisi airport (very close to Lecce) to Palermo, or Bari airport to either Catania and Palermo are the only nonstop flights. Ryanair.
