funtoocruise Posted April 28, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Can anyone help with information on how to get to the Venice airport from the San Basillio Pier. Can you get to the people mover then to the Piazza Roma or is that very far. We docked at the Maritima Pier the only other time I was in Venice, it was a bit of a walk but doable to the People mover but I have no Idea where the Basillio pier is located. Or is just better to do the cruise line transfer. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleleaves Posted April 28, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 28, 2015 What time is your flight ? There are a few options depending on your budget and how much time you have. San Basilio is in the same vicinity as Marttima but a little more awkward. map in link below http://europeforvisitors.com/venice/articles/transportation-from-san-basilio.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisemom42 Posted April 28, 2015 #4 Share Posted April 28, 2015 It could not be easier to get from San Basilio to Piazzale Roma. Much easier than from Marittima. Right next to the San Basilio pier building, just across a small wooden bridge, there is a vaporetto stop where you can board the #2 vaporetto to Piazzale Roma. (This vaporetto also continues to the train station, for anyone looking to board a train, which is what I did.) From Piazzale Roma you can take the express bus (with luggage storage beneath) to the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisemom42 Posted April 28, 2015 #6 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I believe it is still 7 euro per single ticket. If you buy a pass (e.g., for 24 hours) you can save significantly but only if you plan to use the vaporetto several times. I don't know if you are just arriving in Venice that morning, but if you have an overnight there it's something to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We arrive in Venice on the Cruise ship we have an overnight here then disembark the next day to go home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Rosebery Posted April 29, 2015 #8 Share Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) (Land)taxis can get to San Basilio. That is the quickest and easiest way to the airport. The pictures show the bridge that cruisemom42 mentioned. The cruise terminal is on the left. The vaporetto dock is on the right.

Earl Rosebery Posted April 30, 2015 #10 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Thank you for the information. This makes my planning much easier! P.S. You can't get to the people mover from San Basilio. If you plug these coordinates into google maps, you will find yourself in front of the San basilio terminal.45.431398,12.317996 The screen shot shows the terminal building with the Vaporetto stop at the top left. (the small white square in the laguna). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
