I see a train itinerary that has a Naples regional #5872 train 8:12 to 8:53 thru Caserta then the Frecciargento #8303 9:14 to 12:11. Is it possible for 6 people to grab luggage, find connecting train within 15-18 minutes as there is only a 21 minute window for connecting train before it departs station?
The Caserta train station is small. It shouldn’t be a problem. You know the train stop previous to Caserta is Maddaloni Inferiore, so get all of your luggage & people ready at the door, ready for when it opens at Caserta.
I went from Polignano al Mare to Naples in November 2024 with FlixBus. It went through Bari. The bus from Naples to Bari leaves at 930 and arrives at 1220. It was a great trip. I usually get what they call the panorama seats, the first row. I get the door side, aisle and love it. Comfortable, and would avoid train transfer hassle, just a thought.
Absolutely.
That’s plenty of time for a small station such as Caserta.
