Venice-help with transpo to Marco Polo Airport

We need advise on how to get from our hotel Westin Europa & Regina to Marco Polo International Airport for a Sunday morning flight in May.
How long should this take and how much should it cost?

by water bus alilaguna (http://www.alilaguna.it/), 700m from hotel to the San Marco stop. 12.00€, about 90min ride.

If you are too early for the Alilaguna, you might have to opt for a water taxi (basically a speed boat). They can run up to 100.00€ and are parked just outside of the airport near where you would catch the waterbus.

Good luck!

Don't worry - there really is no such thing as too early for the Alilaguna. The first one leaves San Marco at 3:40am, arriving at the airport by 5am.

Yeah, it seems to be more of a problem when you have to depart. I've had to get to Marco Polo at 4:30 before. That's miserable...

Good luck!

Oh myra -- I apologize. I just noticed that you are departing from Venice. So, it seems that you could potentially have to get there in the 4:00 hour. Your hotel can also arrange for a water taxi if need be. Good luck!
