The police woke me from my half sleep no fewer than three times to check my passport and tickets. I should add that two of the times I was woken was by the same pair of policemen. -Damo

Recent Review

by landing101
My husband and I stayed landside for four hours before we could check in. Dingy was the impression I got with regard to color scheme. There were two cafes offering deli style food, pizza slices, sandwitches etc. And two gift / book shops. It was horrendously hot, smokey and generally unpleasant. The ovens used to cook at the cafes were making the heat even more unbearable and there was a lack of seating available, we found a seat after a wait at one of the cafes.
Toilets. Dont know where to start. In the two cubicle toilet landside for ladies, there was a pile of used toilet papers next to the toilet going up to head height when you sit down. I was in such disbelief that I took a photo of it. Things were a bit better airside, but the toilet not that much cleaner. Was very glad when the plane actually took off and we knew it was behind us. A pity because Venice itself is beautiful.
