I am aware this may be a fringe question!

Trenitalia are running a special service from Ponte Nelle Alpi to Cortina in conjunction with the events taking place there. We have FIP Coupons so was:
A) Wondering if they would be valid on the bus also?
B) Is it possible to book the bus on its own? The Trenitalia app seems to only allow it in conjunction with a train ticket

The hourly bus service to "Cortina 2026" is run by DolomitiBus (see trenitalia.com), so I doubt FIP coupons will be valid. Trenitalia indeed only seem to sell tickets in combination with a train journey. It's €9.65 from either Belluno or Stazione per l'Alpago. I can't find that bus on the DolomitiBus website, so no idea if you can buy tickets for it separately.
If you want to do the line to Calalzo, there seems to be a bus Calalzo-Cortina every 20 minutes (I checked 10/2). A day pass for that bus is €10 (see this page, under "OLIMPIADI"). Regular tickets should be a bit less than that but the planner says "Non purchasable route".

Many thanks for this, we did end up taking the bus from Ponte Nelle Alpi Polpet, no ticket check either way.
However on the return we wanted to travel back earlier so attempted to amend on both the Trenitalia app and the ticket machine to no avail.

The train manager wasn't particularly helpful and just said we needed to pay €5 if we wanted to travel
