T1’s basic Newsstand sits just past check-in
You find the Newsstand in Verona’s T1, after security but before most food options, so it’s an easy stop if you’re early for a domestic or Schengen flight. It’s a small, old‑school airport kiosk, not a mini‑supermarket.
Magazines and newspapers skew Italian, with a few English titles mixed in alongside local publications from Verona and Veneto. If you want an international paper like the Financial Times or an English gossip weekly, assume hit‑or‑miss and grab it when you see it.
Books run mostly in Italian, with some pocket‑size paperbacks and airport thrillers starting around €10–€15. Kids’ activity books and puzzle books show up on a separate rack, handy if you’re trying to occupy a child on a 1–2 hour hop.
Expect the usual small items near the counter: bottled water, soft drinks, chocolate bars, gum, and mints, generally at the typical airport markup of about 20–30% over city prices. You’ll also see travel basics like USB cables, cheap wired earphones, and EU plug adapters, useful if you showed up from outside Europe without one.
They take cards for even low amounts, and contactless works reliably, which helps if you’re down to your last €5 in cash before a 06:00–08:00 departure. Opening hours roughly track the first and last T1 departures, so expect it open from early morning to evening, but not 24/7.
Tip: buy water and snacks here right after security in T1; small gate kiosks near remote stands can close between waves of flights.
