This is the only option here that reaches the middle of Venice without a second ticket. Everything on wheels stops at Piazzale Roma.

It is slow — 85 minutes — because it is a boat making stops, not a transfer. Budget the time even though it costs less door to door than the bus.

If your hotel is near Piazzale Roma or the station, take the bus instead: you would be paying for water you do not need.

The dock is a walk from the terminal along a covered walkway. Allow for it with heavy luggage.

It does not reach St mark's. Piazzale Roma is the edge of the city; the vaporetto on from there is 39 minutes and EUR 9.50, which makes EUR 19.50 in total — more than the boat that goes directly.

Going on by water, buy the EUR 18.00 combined ticket rather than two singles. It covers this bus and 90 minutes of vaporetto.

It is the right choice, and cheap, if you are staying near Piazzale Roma, the station or on the mainland at Mestre.

No bus leaves the airport between 01:10 and 04:08; the land taxi to Piazzale Roma, EUR 40.00, runs at any hour.

The ordinary EUR 9.50 network ticket is not valid for the airport leg — the exclusion is written into the tariff.
