BDS Bríndisi Palese Airport Guide
Getting There - It pains me to say it but the best way is by car, 15 minute parking free, then 2€ per 30 minutes. There is also a bus from Lecce that stops to nearby villages and cities. Taxis found often enough, even during the night, negotiate the price before getting in and consult the official tariffs online (be advised they aren’t respected very often)
Attractions - It’s an airport 😂😂
Hotels - Accommodation close to the airport can be found only in the form of Airbnbs and it is rare and somewhat expensive. Instead choose to rent a car and reach nearby Lecce, a beautiful city full of life all year long
Food & Restaurants - There is a wide variety of food and drink options as well as a lounge.
Shopping - A small, regional airport that gets really busy the summer, expect to find shops open until midnight during summertime but completely closed the winter.
