About the Madonna dell'Orto – Aeroporto (A) crossing
Twenty-seven departures a day, every day, from a canal-side stop in Cannaregio to the airport. The run takes 29 minutes across roughly 3.2 nautical miles of the northern lagoon, and it is the closest thing Venice has to an airport transfer that does not involve leaving the water.
From just before seven to just before eight
The first boat leaves at 06:56 and the last at 19:56. That span is worth checking against a flight time: there is nothing after eight in the evening, so a late departure from Marco Polo has to be reached by road, and an early one may need the first sailing exactly.
Half-hourly, near enough
Twenty-seven sailings across thirteen hours works out close to one every half hour, running seven days a week with no reduced weekend pattern. For a city where the alternative involves a bus and a bridge, that frequency is the point.
Season
The current timetable runs to 30 November 2026. Lagoon services are reissued for the winter with thinner frequencies, so the half-hourly pattern above should be read as the main-season one rather than a year-round guarantee.
Vehicles, pets & onboard
