Ticket purchase process

Buy tickets at the airport ticket offices, stationary terminals (note that they don’t take large bills!), Newsagents, or online on the ATV website. It must be composted at the entrance.

A bus stop is located to the right of the exit from the arrivals terminal.

By taxi

If you are in a hurry, your luggage is too heavy or you are 4 people, then it is better to order a taxi to the city. A taxi desk is located in the arrivals terminal on the ground floor. The trip will cost approximately € 20 and take 15 minutes. You can order a car by phone: +39 045 532666 Union Radio Taxi, but the bill will increase by a few euros, the waiting time for a flight delay and standing in traffic jams are also paid and you need to speak Italian by phone.

It is more profitable to order a taxi on the Internet. After the order, according to the conditions of the service, the carrier himself will have to take into account the time by which the arrival is delayed and correlate it with the time of the taxi to the terminal. When ordering a taxi online you can specify special requirements: for example, you need a child seat or a car with a spacious boot. The driver will be waiting for you at the exit from the baggage claim area with a sign. The service has a Russian version.

By rented car

From Verona Airport, the city can be reached by rental car on the A4 and A22 motorways.

You can rent a car directly at the airport, where several rental companies are represented. But consider two points.

1. Rental companies in their brochures often do not intentionally indicate such nuances as the standard content of the insurance package or the restriction on daily mileage. And you will learn about this only during the registration process.

2. You can save a lot when ordering a car in advance. In high season, prices on the spot are much higher, and the choice of cars is not so wide. It is more profitable to order a car a few months before the trip.

Italian signs and superstitions

It would seem what superstitions and signs can be discussed in a country where perhaps the most convinced Catholics in the world live. But despite the full force of their faith, Italians still can’t pass by a black cat without panic, or not look at a fortuneteller to find out the future. The fact that the inhabitants of beautiful Italy are hostages of superstition is also proved by numerous studies of sociologists.

Since October 12, 1946, the song “Brothers of Italy” (Fratelli d'Italia) has been recognized by the anthem of Italy. The text was created by the young Garibaldian poet Goffredo Mameli (Goffredo Mameli, 1827-1849).

Buying property in Italy: what for what?

Buying a property in Italy is not only a profitable investment, but also your “pass ticket” to Europe. Without going into the bureaucratic details of applying for a visa, I would like to inform you that owning an apartment or a house in Italy guarantees a “C” type visa. Thus, Europe is open for you about 180 days a year (90 days in each half year).
