Summer 2025 will be particularly rich for United: after the announcement of the opening of the Palermo-New York (EWR), the company relaunches and doubles the connections from the U.S. to Venice.
In this article:
Specifically, as of May 23, 2025, and throughout the summer, United will offer. daily connections between the lagoon city and the U.S. capital: it will take off from VCE at 10:05 a.m. and arrive in Washington (IAD) at 2:05 p.m. (local time); on the reverse leg, departure from IAD is scheduled at 5:25 p.m., while arrival at 'Marco Polo' is scheduled for 8:05 a.m. the next morning (local time).
The operational involves the use of the Boeing 767-300 set up in 3 classes of service-business (30 seats), premium economy (24), and economy class (149)-for a total of 203 seats. As we have written over and over again, B767s are definitely not the newest aircraft to be found in the world's skies: United has about 50 of them (both -300 and -400 versions) and they have an average age of 27 years; the fact, however, that there is 'United Polaris' - the company's business class - is an added value and can make one forget that one is aboard a 'lived-in' aircraft.
During summer '25, from Venice United will offer direct connections not only to Washington but also to New York: lhe seasonal route will officially restart on March 30 and will have daily frequency; in this chaos the aircraft used will be the more capacious 231-seat Boeing 767-400ER.
