hi dont think you will get direct flights from canada to genoa 20 mins from savona. the main international airport in the area seems to be milan 2 1/2 hours if your planning to fly via UK only london stansted and gatwick have flights to genoa. it depends on your route from canada via say paris, amsterdam ect

we are getting a taxi from savona to genoa at the end of transatlantic dont know of a train service sorry

 

cheers sean

You can also fly to Nice. Nice is 2 1/2 hours from Savona on the train. There are direct flights from New York City to Nice, so that is another option. It was much cheaper for us and more direct to fly from Nice. We are flying from Mexico City to New York and New York to Nice. You could probably do the same thing from Ontario.

We did a cruise out of Savona last year and flew into Milan. From Milan, you can take a bus directly to the central train station. It's about a 30 minute ride and cost appoximately $5 USD. We stayed overnight in Milan at a hotel just a couple of blocks from the train station. Very nice and very cheap (about $70 USD). It was called The Madison. The next morning we took a train (a very scenic ride) directly to Savona. It was about 2.25 hours and cost roughly $40 USD. We finished it off with a 10 minute cab ride to the port (about $15).

I am booked on Costa out of Savona in May, and am flying directly into Genoa--on Lufthansa. (actually, their partner, Air Dolomiti, does the Munich-Genoa leg.)
