Marconi Express or Taxi service to Bologna airport.

Edit: We are now thinking we might take the Marconi Express and walk to the train station to get it. How often does it run from the train station and where do we get on the bus meaning how do we find it at the train station?
xxxDoes anyone know a good taxi service to call for a ride from Bologna center to the airport?
Thank you.

Is the Marconi Express a train or bus?
We have to get to the train station for that too, by bus because of luggage and tired dh who would rather not walk the 25 min walk.
We are not staying in a hotel so can’t ask them to call for taxi. But we could call.

The Marconi Express is a People Mover from the station to the airport.
If there are two or more in your party, and you are not at the station, the taxi is cheaper and more convenient.

The main taxi company in Bologna is in the website below. You can call the number +39 051 372727 or via website or via app which you can download from the website (see details below)
