Need Venice disembarking information


Sea World

Recommended Posts

Our cruise ends at Venice port at 6AM. We plan to carry my own luggage, to be in the first group to get out of the ship. Will we be able to catch the 6:50AM ATVO bus to Marco Polo Airport? My flight is at 9:50AM. Thanks.

Probably. The people mover takes 2 minutes to P Roma.

Safer move is to take a taxi direct from port to airport

When you are trying to make a tight connection like this, I think it's penny wise and pound foolish, so to speak, to try and take the bus. Take a taxi directly to the airport. The People Mover doesn't begin operation until 7 AM, so that wouldn't help you anyway.

Thank you Earl and Euro cruiser for your advice. I will take taxi to the airport. Can we get taxi right at the Pier or do we have to walk to P.Roma? Do taxis start their operation before 7AM?

I don't know what time the taxis are on site. According to the cruise port web site (here: http://www.vtp.it//terminal/crociere.jsp?idm=6Z49EH1157271R175I5950NRRUYWVRS3&prg=3&page_2=3), the phone number for the radio taxi service at the port is Radiotaxi - Tel. +39 041 5952080. You can call and have one there within minutes.

Thank you very much for the useful information

Thanks a trillion for the very helpful information. It's always good to hear from a person who's already done the same. :)
