Your gateway to Venice, the Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE) is the international airport here, aptly named after the city's famous globetrotter. Situated about 4.7 miles east of Mestre and north of Venice proper, it boasts flights to various cosmopolitan cities in Europe, as well as some seasonal transcontinental routes. In 2018, the airport welcomed over 11 million passengers, making it the fourth busiest in Italy. With its modern terminal which opened in 2002, 70 check-in desks, two comfortable lounges, and separate areas for Schengen and non-Schengen flights, its facilities are designed to ensure passenger comfort and convenience.

Not just limited to airborne travel, the airport also extends connectivity to the neighbouring Venice Mestre railway station and bus terminal at Piazzale Roma in Venice through regular bus services. And just for that quintessential touch of Venice, you can opt for the Alilaguna water shuttles to the city and to Piazza San Marco, or choose the express Gold Line and water taxi service.
