Transportation to Airport from Kutaisi City Center
Kutaisi Intl. Airport
Urban transportation in Kutaisi is usually provided by large buses with 50-60 passenger capacity and marshrutkas which have more number of routes than the other public transports.
Marshrutka
Currently, the price of a one person ticket for Kutaisi minibuses, whose other name is marshrutka, is 0.20 Lari. It is quite easy to get to Kutaisi Airport from any location in Kutaisi by marshrutka. Kutaisi minibuses provide the most comfortable, cheapest and most convenient way for urban transportation in Kutaisi.
As they are not connected with any business, ticket fares vary according to their line number. But this has an advantage, as the number of routes and lines is increasing day by day in the city centre.
Bus

Taxi
It is quite possible that you will see taxis very often in Kutaisi. Because taxis form a major part of urban transportation. The reason for this is that the taxi fares are reasonable and transportation by taxi is very convenient due to the small size of the city. You can travel to the Kutaisi airport in a short time from any location in the city at a price of 20-30 Lari.
Rent a Car
There are more rent a car companies in the city centre than in Kutaisi Airport. If you are considering making daily trips to the other major cities of Georgia such as Tbilisi or Batumi by your own vehicle, you can rent a car from the city centre and then deliver it to Kutaisi Airport on the day of your return.

Transportation to Venice City Center from Airport
Venice Marco Polo Airport
Venice has two airports, "Marco Polo" and "Treviso", but a significant number of international flights, including flights from Istanbul, are landing at Marco Polo Airport.
From the airport to the city center you have many options such as train, bus, taxi, vaporetto, car rental and water taxi.
Bus
There are two options for transportation from the airport to the city: "ACTV" buses operated by municipality or privately operated "ATVO" buses.
ACTV buses operate from 4 am to midnight every day of the week, between Rome Square and the airport. The journey lasts 25 minutes. Tickets can be picked up from the vending machines at the airport terminals. ATVO buses also work on the same line as ACTV. The bus departing from the airport operated between 7.50 am and 11.50 pm. The duration of the journey is almost the same as ACTV. If you will be staying somewhere outside Venice city center, like Mestre, you can use other routes of ATVO and ACTV.
Vaporetto
It is very enjoyable to get to the Venetian islands from the airport with the small sea buses, which are called "Vaporetto", run by the company "Alilunga" because you will start living the Venetian atmosphere as soon as you enter the city. There are 3 separate lines - red, orange and blue; which one to choose depends on your destination. Therefore, it is advised for you to consult your hotel about which line to choose and which stop to get off before you arrival. The journey with these would not be very short. It depends on your destination, but it lasts more than 1 hour. You can get tickets from your arrival terminal. You can reach the pier of boats after a 10-minute walk from the terminal exit.
Train
While the most convenient way to get to the city center of Venice is by bus and vaporetto, you still have the option to take a train. You only need to take a taxi or bus to get to the main railway stations from the airport. With the buses from the airport you can go to the Mestre station in 20-25 minutes and to Santa Lucia station in 35 minutes. Then you can reach the different points of the city by train. It is not a practical and preferred method as you need to change two vehicles with this way.
Taxi
There is a taxi company named "Radio Taxi" at the airport. You can make reservations in advance or take a taxi to the city center or other area upon your arrival. Taxi fare would be around 40 euros to Rome Square, and 35 euros to the center of Mestre from the airport.
Car Rental
You can rent a car from the lower floor of the arrival terminals. Here you can find a total of eight company offices such as Avis, Europcar, Autovia, Autoeuropa, Maggiore, Sixt, Lacauto and Hertz. If you will only be visiting Venice city center, renting a car is not a recommended option, because you cannot take your car to the city center, where you can travel with boats or by foot. If you rent a car from the airport, you need to park it in the parking lot at the Rome Square.
Water Taxi
The water taxi, which is the most elegant and most expensive way of going to the center of Venice from the airport via the canal, is another alternative. When you book in advance, it can be a bit cheaper, but the average prices vary between 80 and 125 euros depending on where you are going.
