We are booked to sail on the Brilliance of the Seas on Oct 30th from Venice to Rome. We decided to fly to Venice a couple days early to enjoy they city, but were worried about being able to find transportation to the Port of Ravenna on the day of. Many on this blog have mentioned RC said they couldn't return to the airport and get on the same bus as those landing from flights the same day. This made me worry we wouldn't be able to get a bus ride to the port and would have to pay a lot to get a ride there. I just called RC and found out from the person who helped me (Shout out to Diego!) that there is ALSO a bus leaving from Isola Nova Del Tronchetto (a bus hub it seems) that will be available for cruisers for transportation to the port! HALLELUJAH! It costs $58 per person, and saves the hassle of trying to get back to Marco Polo Airport on the day of for a ride back. I also want to note, it seemed to confuse the person I spoke to, and required some explanation, saying I was going to be in Venice but planning on coming back to the airport for a ride. Thankfully there's another bus option in Venice instead of having to backtrack. Fingers crossed everything goes according to plan on the day of. If it doesn't for some reason, I'll give an update post bus pick-up!
