Venice Airport
You go off the airport, you can actually buy a ticket for the bus straight to Padova, without having to reach the train station of Venice. They depart every 30 mins, some ones also keep going further away, like “Abano Terme”.
You can buy the tickets:
- at the ticket office ATVO dell’Aeroporto M. Polo;
- dispenser automatic (platform D) all’Aeroporto M. Polo
- in the app Busitalia Veneto
It’s gonna cost 8,50€ or 10€ if you buy on bus, (for luggage there is no extra)
It should be 1h to Padova Bus station.
here is the timetable if you need:
