Surcharge for Specific Hotels
A surcharge may apply for pickup from Marriott hotels due to their location within Venice, which can impact the logistics and accessibility of the private water taxi transfer. The surcharge helps account for the additional time and effort required to navigate the waterways and reach these hotels.
Customers booking this transfer service from a Marriott hotel should expect to pay a slightly higher rate compared to other centrally-located hotels in Venice.

Potential Weather-related Diversions
In cases of inclement weather, the private water taxi may need to divert to Piazzale Roma, where passengers will then be transported by vehicle to the airport. This potential diversion is due to factors like heavy rain, strong winds, or high tides that could make the water taxi transfer unsafe or impractical.
When this occurs, the service provider will:
- Arrange for a ground transportation vehicle to pick up passengers at Piazzale Roma.
- Ensure a smooth transition from the water taxi to the vehicle.
- Deliver passengers directly to the Venice Marco Polo Airport terminal.
This weather-related contingency plan helps maintain the reliability of the private departure transfer service, even when faced with challenging environmental conditions.
