 Poster: A snowHead

I think we may have made a bit of a mistake here. Missed the cheap Ryanair flights to Venice and they have pulled the Verona flights. In a panic we booked Milan Linate, but are now faced with a hugely expensive taxibus transfer to Corvara for 16 of us. Google mapped the directions and it quotes 3 hours 43 minutes for the transfer. A friend reckons it will take us about 6 hours! I am not surprised as it took us about 4 hours from Verona to Selva last year. I am clutching at straws here hoping someone will tell me its not that bad.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

looking at the map, and comparing it to how long it takes from milan to claviere, i'd say you're looking at over 4 hours, maybe 5. all depends on traffic and weather though.
You could always look into hiring a couple of Vitos. that's what we do for 7 or 8 of us.

Yes, we drove from bergamo last year to arabba and back to linate. This year we drove from Malpensa to Arrabba. Went autoroute most of the way, then through Val gardena, Corvara, Campolonga and down into Arrabba. If road conditions are good its a quich journey - we did it quicker than the european mapping suggested. Hired car, plus chains plus ski rack at the airport.

By no means a disaster.
ViaMichelin says 3h51min, it doesn't look hardly any further than Selva to Venice, that took us under 3 hrs, autostrada (motorway) nearly all the way. You may hit some traffic around Milan depending on timings (same at Venice). You will have to do the Gardena Pass as well, they're pretty quick at opening it after a snowfall, just first thing in the morning after overnight snow takes a while to clear.

Thank you Dave Horsley, and luigi. Hopefully not as bad as I feared then. Flying from the dreaded Heathrow though at some awful time, so hopefully may snooze through the long transfer.
