Marco Polo Venice International Airport (IATA: VCE, ICAO: LIPZ) is an airport located on the Italian mainland near Venice, Italy, in Tessera, a frazione of the commune of Venice nearest to Mestre that, before Fascism, was an autonomous commune. The airport was named after the Venetian traveller Marco Polo, who is considered the European rediscoverer of China. It is considered one of the three most important airports in northern Italy (with the two international airports of Milan, Malpensa and Linate). The airport is managed by SAVE S.p.A., a company partially controlled by local authorities. The stock is traded on the Milan Stock Exchange.
