Direct Bremen–Calabria Flights Return This Autumn
Ryanair will restore direct flights between Bremen and Lamezia Terme in southern Italy this autumn, returning Italy to Bremen’s nonstop network after six years. The route is aimed at passengers across northwest Germany who currently need to connect elsewhere for Calabria.

Lamezia Terme lies in central Calabria, close to the Tyrrhenian coast, and is known for its medieval old town and thermal springs. The airport also provides a starting point for trips through the region’s mountain villages, rocky coastline and walking areas. Average daytime highs reach around 21°C in October, making the route suitable for autumn breaks as well as longer holidays.
The new service makes Calabria’s coast and inland villages easier to reach directly from northwest Germany. Reggio Calabria is around 75 minutes by car from Lamezia Terme Airport, where ferries cross to Sicily several times a day in roughly 30 minutes. The route supports trips combining Calabria with Sicily, alongside stays focused on beaches, thermal sites and hiking in southern Italy.
The Friday and Sunday timetable suits weekend breaks, but it also works for longer trips around southern Italy. Onward transport needs planning, as smaller coastal towns, mountain villages and the Sicily ferry may require a hire car or carefully timed connections. Travellers should compare airport transfers before choosing accommodation, particularly when continuing beyond Lamezia Terme rather than staying in the city.
