The Italo network consists of the major destinations in Italy. Italo high speed trains serve the following main cities in Italy: Milan, Bologna, Florence, Rome, Padova, Salerno, and from October 2012 onwards; Turin, Venice and Naples. Italo trains stop in Roma Tiburtina and Roma Ostiense which are close to Linate airport, as well as Milano Porta Garibaldi and Milano Rogoredo, which are close to Roma Fiumicino Airport. Please note that Italo does not stop at Roma Termini and Milano Centrale.

Italo trains operate on railway routes which are also served by other trains. However Italo trains can offer more comfort on board.
