Naples Capodichino (NAP) is closed to all air traffic from 1 to 30 November 2026 for a runway and taxiway rebuild, according to Wanted in Rome. Some flights are being moved to Salerno, the report says, but only part of the airport's traffic. If your trip starts in Naples or continues to the Amalfi Coast, treat this as a fixed constraint for the whole month, not a short delay.
How to reroute without losing a day
Check your airline's official site before you call anyone. Rebooking options vary by carrier and fare, and a moved flight may land at a different airport. For a late-November arrival, compare flying into Rome and taking a train south, or ask your airline how it plans to move passengers from Salerno. Do not assume a Salerno arrival puts you close to Naples: the two airports serve different parts of the region, so budget a longer transfer than usual. If you are heading to the Amalfi Coast, a Salerno landing can work for the eastern end, but Positano and Sorrento still need a road transfer. Allow extra time for luggage and queues at replacement airports.
What to book now
Book flexible accommodation for the first night. A 30-day closure can push demand onto trains and car hire. If you are flying home from Naples in November, recheck the departure airport on your ticket in the first week of November. Check your airline's official site and your booking app, not just one email. Euronews Travel's guide to flight delay compensation is a useful backup if disruption hits, though EU rules depend on the cause and the airline. This is a summary, not legal advice.
