How to reach Udine

By plane

There are three main airports serving the North-East of Italy:

• Marco Polo Venice International Airport (VCE),

• Trieste Airport (TRS).

From VCE: it takes about 20-30 minutes to reach the railway station in Venezia Mestre from the airport by bus or taxi (and then about 1 hour 40 minutes to Udine by train that runs about every 30 minutes). There are two bus services:

ATVO Fly Bus (direct connection, recommended): buses run daily, every 20 minutes approximately, journey time is 20-25 minutes. Tickets cost 8 euro and can be purchased inside the arrival hall at the airport. See here for schedule and online tickets.
