Venice Treviso Airport & Getting to Venice
Traveling to Venice and the wider Veneto region from the UK is both straightforward and budget-friendly, especially if you can be a bit flexible with your travel dates. The options available are plentiful, but from my personal experience, I’ve found British Airways flights to be the most reliable choice. They consistently offer competitive prices along with a trustworthy service, making your journey more pleasant.
One notable advantage British Airways has over low-cost carriers like Ryanair is that they operate flights into Venice Marco Polo Airport, which is the primary airport serving Venice. This means you’ll be landing much closer to the city’s stunning canals and iconic landmarks.
In contrast, Ryanair mostly flies into Treviso Airport, located about 30 kilometers away from Venice. While Treviso is an option, it adds extra travel time and potential hassle to your journey. Deciding whether Ryanair’s tempting discounts are worth the hassle can be tricky. Sure, those low fares catch your eye, but don’t forget about the extra trek from Treviso Airport to Venice. It adds time and a bit of stress to your journey.
Plus, Ryanair’s strict luggage rules can be a headache. If you’re planning to explore the wonders of Venice, those limitations might leave you scrambling to pack light. For many, the ease of flying directly into Venice Marco Polo Airport—though perhaps pricier—can offer a smoother, more enjoyable start to your Italian adventure. Always weigh convenience against cost!
Before finalizing your booking, run your dates through Kayak, they aggregate all the best deals and offer some amazing bargains.
Easy Jet is probably a good second best. They have flights from Gatwick, Bristol, Edinburgh and Manchester into Venice Marco Polo.
Getting into Venice from Treviso Airport
If you’re flying into Treviso Airport, there are two excellent bus options to get you to Venice: ATVO and Barzi Bus.
ATVO Eurobus
- Pick-Up Location: ATVO buses depart right outside the arrivals terminal at Treviso Airport.
- Drop-Off Location: The buses take you to Piazzale Roma in Venice, which is just a short walk from the historic city center.
- Price: A one-way ticket costs €12, while a round-trip ticket is €22. The journey takes approximately 60 to 70 minutes.
Barzi Bus
- Pick-Up Location: Barzi Bus also picks up passengers outside the arrivals area of Treviso Airport.
- Drop-Off Location: Similar to ATVO, Barzi Bus drops you off at Piazzale Roma, making it easy to access Venice's famous sights.
- Price: A one-way ticket costs €10, and a round-trip ticket is €18. The journey time is around 40 minutes.
However, if you'd rather skip the hassle of the regular bus, then consider a direct shuttle. These options do tend to cost a bit more than your flight, so they might not be ideal for folks on a tight budget. Here is the best option which you should book before you leave.
Treviso (view guide here) is a lovely city though so maybe spend a day here before heading into Venice.
