Hi all, I will be using a few smaller airlines while traveling and am trying to find a good, relatively cheap means of getting to and from these airports. Any suggestions. Here are the airports: Volare from Paris Orly South to Rome FCO Ryanair from Rome Ciampino to London Stansted Easyjet from London Luton to Paris CDG Thanks much, Ashley

Rome Ciampino: COTRAL buses run every 15 minutes from Ciampino to the ANAGNINA stop of Subway Line A from where you can take a Subway to Stazione Termini.
Rome FCO: The train to Rome's Central Station (Roma Termini) runs frequently between 7:50 am and 10:05 pm and takes 30-35 minutes
London Stansted: The Stansted Express train service goes direct to the airport from London Liverpool Street station. From Monday to Friday trains run every 15 minutes between 08:00 and 16:00 and every 30 minutes at other times. The first train leaves Liverpool Street at 05:00 Monday to Friday. Last departure is 23:00.
On Saturday and Sunday the service operates every 30 minutes. First departure 05:00, last departure 23:00.
Journey time is around 42 minutes.
Cost Standard fare: One way GBP£13. Return/round trip: GBP£23 London Luton: The fastest rail link into Central London is the Luton Flyer service. Take one of the special connecting buses from the airport to Luton rail station, where trains run frequently to Kings Cross Thameslink station Monday-Sunday, with several departures through the night. Total journey time including shuttle bus is between 45-60 minutes and the adult single fare is £9.90.
Paris Orly South: Buses to Orly leave from the Invalides terminal to either Orly Sud or Orly Ouest every 15 minutes, taking about 30 minutes.
Paris CDG: Train: 7.70 EUR, 30 minutes The RER is Paris's system of suburban trains, and you'll be taking the train known as RER B into the city. There are two stations at the airport: Roissy CDG 1, in the Terminal 1 complex and Roissy CDG 2, in the Terminal 2 complex. In Terminal 1, walk or take the Green shuttle to the shopping level to find the RER station. In Terminal 2, take the Blue shuttle to the TGV-RER station.
Within Paris, RER B connects with other RER lines and with the Metro, which can take you just about anywhere. Use the maps in the station to plan your entire trip, and buy a combined RER-Metro ticket. You'll get close to your hotel for only 7.70 EUR.
Bus: 8.50-11.00 EUR, 40-50 minutes
Now these prices might not be totally up to date so don't quote me on them but it will give you an idea.

2 other ways to get to Orly airport:
1. RER C to Porte de Rungis, shuttle bus (free) to terminal.
2. RER B to Antony, OrlyVal train to terminal.
I think the RER C is cheaper.
