I was interested in your comment on the trek to the landing stage from the airport in Venice Marco Polo. My flight, which was due to arrive at 17.30 now arrives at 22.30. I am not amused>>

i can understand that, Margo.

I thought that it was looking like a water taxi for you but in fact the alilaguna keeps going until after midnight:

with any luck you should make the 23.40.

Water taxi would have been great at 17.30. It's a wonderful way to arrive.

At 22.30 Alilaguna it is. Fortunately, the apartment is only a couple of hundred metres and one bridge from Guglie stop.

A private taxi is an even BETTER way to arrive but I'll allow you to stay on my thread anyway <G>.

that's lucky, margo. I hope that the apartment owner doesn't want to charge extra for out of hours arrival. When our plane was late, we had the number of the apartment manager and the water taxi driver phoned him for us and they were very nice about it.
