We ordered the tickets online for October 21 and when we got there found out that it was closed that day. It was not clearly indicated online so we wasted the money for three tickets That we couldn't use

Sending a QR of the ticket (or having it appear on the app) and subsequent scanning would avoid having to type in the numeric code to get the physical ticket at the boarding gate. Especially in the case of large crowds, it seems like an unnecessary extra step.

That you can see and photograph Venice from the water. Otherwise fast, good and clean. Seat optional but after 2 stops at the latest you have one.

Process was easy. Redeeming the ticket was easy from the machine. Good thing we had it for our one way ticket because we were ticket checked by the water bus conductor on our way to the train station.

These short-term passes are pocket-friendly and work well for travelers on a budget who want to exploit the city's well connected public transport network to its maximum. You can also hop on any ACTV buses in Mestre and Marghera with this very ticket.
