This is what we read in a note.
In the comfort of the new Sicilian regional trains, the 25 Pop and the 17 Blues, the Cefalù Line returns, a service much appreciated in the summer by travelers and tourists, which on Saturdays and holidays connects Palermo and the “Falcone e Borsellino” international airport in Cefalù.

Furthermore, on Saturdays and holidays there is a direct connection between Palermo Airport and Cefalù with 5 trips on Saturdays and 12 on Sundays. Always on Saturdays and holidays, a new pair of connections between Palermo Airport and Milazzo, gateway to the Aeolian Islands, is available again.
