HI,
I'm planning to take the Cortina Express from Venice to Cortina and back mid-June....does anyone know (I cannot tell on the site or anywhere else) how many trips it makes each day to Cortina....and does it leave from the airport or the train station in Venice (mainland)?....should I purchase the ticket on the site itself or through another site?
thanks for any help, Sandy
Hello smartin927,
The various places are generally called
Venice Piazzale Roma - the bus and car park adjacent to Venice proper
Venice Mestre - the bus/train station on the main land before the long bridge out to Venice
Venice Aeroporto/Marco Polo - all things airport
It looks like ATVO Line 29 runs from Venice Piazzale Roma to the airport and then onto Cortina for 14-20e (for a random day in June) twice a day
https://www.atvo.it/en-timetable.html
Checking the Cortina Express website they list their departure point as Venezia-Aeroporto Park - Viale Galileo Galilei so you'll need to get from Venice proper to the airport. It looks like it runs once a day for 22e.

To get to the airport you can water taxi (fast and expensive), the Alilaguna water bus, but most people vaporetto to Venice Piazzale Roma and then take a taxi or a bus to the airport depending on cost, hassle and time considerations.
