Cheap Flights from Amsterdam to Venice

The route from Amsterdam to Venice covers about 937 km (582 miles). A nonstop flight, when scheduled, usually takes around 1h 45m gate to gate, although total trip time still depends on airport queues, transfer costs, and how early you need to arrive. On shorter European city pairs like this one, time savings can matter as much as the fare itself. If you only see one-stop options on your travel dates, connections through Barcelona or Frankfurt can widen the fare mix, but total journey time often stretches to 5 to 7 hours.

For many travelers, the cheapest time to fly from Amsterdam to Venice is outside Carnival, Easter, late spring, and summer weekends. January, February, and the later part of November usually give you a better chance of seeing lower fares, especially if you can depart on Tuesday or Wednesday and avoid the busiest Friday-to-Sunday patterns. Shoulder-season trips are often the sweet spot on this classic city-break route: you still get a strong travel experience in Venice, but airlines are not dealing with the same pressure they see during bank holidays, school breaks, or sold-out weekend peaks.

For this route, compare a mix of budget and full-service carriers rather than assuming one airline always wins on value.

• Ryanair: often one of the lowest headline fares if you can travel light.
• Vueling: often useful on Spain, Italy, and France city-pair schedules.
• ITA Airways: worth checking when Italy timings or bundled fares matter most.
• Lufthansa: a strong choice when schedule flexibility matters more than the lowest base fare.
• easyJet: often competitive on short-haul European routes with solid schedule choice.

Headline round-trip fares on this route often start around EUR 67 to EUR 112 in quieter periods. A more typical booking window lands closer to EUR 157 to EUR 222, while peak travel dates can push pricing toward EUR 271 to EUR 381 or higher. Prices change with school holidays, event weekends, and how many travelers are chasing the same nonstop times. On short-haul Europe trips, baggage, seat selection, and airport-transfer costs can change the real total more than many travelers expect, so always compare like-for-like fares.

On this route, airport choice can save money only if the ground transfer still makes sense for your trip. Start with Amsterdam Schiphol Airport on the Amsterdam side and Venice Marco Polo Airport on the Venice side, then widen the search if the fare difference is meaningful.

Venice remains one of Europe's classic short breaks, especially if you want a route that pairs major sights with easy side trips to Verona, Padua, or the Dolomites. If you are still planning the rest of the trip, see our Venice destination guide for more ideas before you book.
