I flew from Stuttgart to Venice and everything was smooth except for this detail: On the information screens it showed “Stoccarda” for Stuttgart which is Italian which I did not understand. I think international flights from abroad should be described in English or at least, in the language that is spoken at the departure airport. It got me confused and in fact took me a while to look for the right belt to collect my baggage. Other than that, the airport is fine. It is not too good but not bad at all.
Marco Polo airport in Venice is a well-organized and efficient gateway to the city. From smooth check-in to hassle-free security, the process is seamless. The facilities are modern and clean, with a good selection of shops and restaurants. Convenient transportation options make it easy to reach the city center. A great start to your Venice adventure!
Charming airport with lovely wall art as you leave the plane giving you a good sense of where you are. Excellent signage to smoothly move you around the construction projects. Timely baggage arrival and a lovely feel of a smaller airport. Everyone was courteous and helpful. It was lovely coming in over the Alps and getting to have an aerial view of Venice.
Don’t not be fooled by the size of this small International Airport. I was. They do not have a lot of terminals because they share terminals which was confusing until it was explained. You may not see your airline on the board. One hour before your flight is to depart, your flight information will appear on the board and the terminal number. Be sure to have you passport in your hand. You will need it a lot. Once you get through TSA the first stop is the shops to get your last gifts and lemon-cello. 😃. If you purchase liquid’s they will seal it for you.
This is a lovely airport it's not as massive as Heathrow London or JFK New York, but it gets the job done. It is beautifully designed and strategically located only 20mins from Venice Grand Canal, which is one of the main tourist attractions in this city. When going from this airport to the Venice grand canal, Take The Venice-airport" shuttle" its €10. and it gets you to the Venice grand canal station in quick time. You can take the Bus 6, 6c, or 6L or any corresponding bus to the mainland if your hotel or destination is further into the main land.
DO NOT TAKE THE BUS 5 TO VENICE GRAND CANAL, IT IS VERY LONG TEDIOUS JOURNEY OF OVER AN HOUR. and the bus is often packed.

Very nice airport. Poorly marked ticket counters for international flights. Note you are dropped off by transportation on one level and need to go down one level if flying Delta, American or United. Lots of duty free shopping on the upper levels and lots of food choices. Included in review are photos of the Marco Polo First class lounge. Good small bites for food, didn't see a bar, but we were there in the morning.
Great airport! it gets a bit chaotic when it comes to security because the queue is quite long! We paid almost 4 euros in one of the coffee shop for a bottle of water so better you find one of those machines where with 1.20 you get a bottle! For our flight the check in counter was number 127 located at the lower floor (0) but on the monitors it was written level 1 … a bit confusing! But I still give 4 stars because of the architecture and the amazing natural light coming in from the ceiling!
