Budget travelling airline - leaving from BXL South - recently also Ostend to smaller airports in Europe.
Comfort is low - planes fully booked most of the time - correct respecting flight schedule - safety on board well highlighted.
Our flight to Italy was from Bruxelles South to Treviso Airport (30 km from Venice) - took about 1hr20min and was correct !

The views are the same

'Mode': TO
Category: Airplane
Getting TO/AROUND: Ryanair - a low budget way of traveling through Europe ! No top comfort on board - but the outside view remains the same !
So what - Alitalia, the regular airway or Virgin and some other low budget traveling experience?????The transport from Treviso airport to Venice : About 10 euro
Make up yr choice.

The Gondolas

'Mode': AROUND
Category: Ship/Boat
Getting TO/AROUND: Most attractive and popular way of transport in a City erected and transformed in a landscape of Canals.
Station yr car at the "Communal Parking" cross the street and buy you a ticket for the local taxi.
It will bring you around or to several terminals on the Canal.
Cost : only 5 euro - step on step off - valid for 90 minutes and you will have a first impression off the City !!

Local distribution

'Mode': AROUND
Category: Ship/Boat
Getting TO/AROUND: A little bit funny - but logic.
Mail express is delivered by this small boats !!
Not only mail - but just everything because there is no other way.
The inhabitants of Venice (about 60.000 people) have to park their cars outside of Venice on special parking places.

Local distribution

'Mode': AROUND
Category: Ship/Boat
Getting TO/AROUND: Every shop/restaurant or even private homes
in the inner city are isolated and unreachable by cars or trucks. So a last supply by trucks is on the Banchina del porto commerciale.
All products are loaded on small boats.

Private taxi

'Mode': AROUND
Category: Ship/Boat
Getting TO/AROUND: Next to the local Vaporetto ( local busses) you can take a private taxi. Once in Venice let us not discuss about prices. Just look at the way you want to enjoy a trip on the Canal Grande
