What is the best option to transportation to our Hotel Cellai form the airport? We'll be joining our Rick Steves tour group in April.

There is no best or worst. There are two basic ways and you decide which is best for you depending on your preference.
One way is by taxi. It costs approximately 30€+ for up to 4 people traveling together. It’s a flat fare which varies a little bit depending on whether you travel at night (10p-6a) or on weekdays or on Sundays and holidays, but it is approx 30€-33€ plus supplements of approx. 1€ per bag. The ride is approximately 20-25 min and the taxi drops you off at the hotel.
The other way is by light rail trolley (tramway) T2 from FLR to Piazza San Marco (the other end of the T2 line) , then approx. 5 min walk. The cost is less than 2€ per person. Larger suitcases over 55x40x20cm and over 10kg (22lb) pay fare too (basically carry on size is free, if above that, the bag pays). Tickets can be purchased at the airport stop, or you can also use tap and go with credit card or phone (there must be one credit card per person for tap and go). Time of travel is about 35 min plus the 5 min walk.
