Transportation Chaos in Naples During Easter

Very long queues have formed outside the Naples International Airport, where tourists are trying to board the few available Alibus services. A disastrous image for the city of Naples and, more generally, for the whole of Campania. Despite Anm having arranged for the continuation of the ordinary Alibus service on Easter day, with the aim of alleviating the inconvenience to tourists, there were severe service disruptions due to an insufficient number of buses to accommodate the passengers from the 17 flights that landed on the airport runway from 1:40 PM to 3:55 PM. 'Once again this year, the city administration was found unprepared to welcome such an explosive demand for tourist mobility in a safe, effective, and efficient manner, not providing Anm with adequate resources, means, and tools. This latest negative experience must represent for the city administration a further incentive to invest in Local Public Transport in Naples,' reads the statement from Usb Lavoro Privato. 'We are aware of the enormous efforts made so far by the General Manager and the director of surface transport Anm but, evidently, they are still not enough to restore a semblance of normality to the demand for urban and tourist mobility in the city, both lacking the necessary municipal, regional, and national funding.'
