    Has anyone used this airport, or more specifically gone from the airport to the train station? I'm trying to fathom how easy it is.

    Hey,

    Was there for my brother's wedding - you're in for a treat! Beautiful place!

    I possibly could help! Where abouts are you staying?

    Easy enough a good few years ago, there's a bus outside that goes to the train station. It's not superfast (no bus lanes) and traffic can be a pain but it gets you there.

    We are heading to both Venice and Florence and flights to Bologna are a few hours earlier than flights to Venice as well as cheaper, so we are considering this as an option.

    There are loads of buses but I would take a taxi. Bologna train station is fairly centrally located and if you have time to spare, I'd have lunch or even a coffee in somewhere around the ation. Bologna is full of collonaded streets to keep the sun off but also full fo students on Vespas so the streets aren't that quiet. It's a destination in its own right, not just an entrepot.

    Beautiful city, and really unusual with all the arcades. I wouldn't bother with it on a Sunday though... it seems to empty out, and the only people left behind are a bit, eh, random.

    Once everything is open though, it's a lovely, vibrant city, and it has the reputation of being the food capital of Italy (no mean feat in a country that does food as good as the Italians do!).
