Hi!
It's my first trip to Italy and I'm wondering if there's cheap access to the Internet? I'd like to check-in for my flights and send email. Any suggestions for locations to log on?

Thanx!

No problem---you'll see them all over the place, and the cost is similar to that in the U.S. (assuming you're from the U.S.). No need to scout out locations ahead of time, as you'll literally pretty much trip over them.

Hotels will often have internet access in the lobbies (with or without a charge for guests), or even let you use their computers for very brief things like checking in for flights.

One of the best internet cafes in Venice is just on the San Marco side of the Accademia bridge, on a small campo called San Stefano. There are posters for it on a lot of trash cans throughout Venice.

Here is that place, from the thread I cited above:

Message: I agree that the place at Campo San Stefano - - Net House, I think - - is very good. Although I have used NetGate in Rome and Verona, I have never seen the NetGate location in Venice.

There is a Netgate in Venice, on Crosera in Dorsoduro. You can also use the computer in Cafe Blue, on the same calle, for free if you just need to check your email.
