By rail to Milan

What luck, we got the two rear-most seats in the carriage; right next to the floor space where luggage is placed, the toilet (tight door, no odours), and the carriage door.

Everything about the train was excellent - decor, comfort, aircon, etc. And it was 2nd-class, mind you.

Bought tickets on-line from Trenitalia for 50.4 Euro total for the two of us, taxes included.

You can choose your seats when booking on-line.
You have to choose (when booking) the departure and arrival railway stations.

Ours were Venice St Lucia and Milano Centrale respectively. Best to get the arival station near to your destination hotel or on easy route to your next departure point eg airport.
 

Click to enlarge photo and you can see some cruise liners in the distance. The emerald Princes on which we arrived had already departed port on another cruise.
