I don’t think there are flights between Lucca and Venice (anyway I can’t find any on Venice airport website http://www.veniceairport.it/) but I don’t think it’d be the better way, anyway; by train, minimum time is less than 4 hours: http://www.trenitalia.com/en/index.html
Edit: I didn’t even consider airport outside of Lucca, since as you can see from the answer below, it’ll take anyway four hours airport to airport; then you should add the time needed for reaching Pisa airport from Lucca, then the time needed for reaching Venice from Treviso…
If you catch a train you can start from the center of Lucca ending up in Venezia Mestre in a minimum of 3:54 hours, but even with the slower options/schedules it’s five hours.
When travelling inside Italy, you should generally consider a flight only for longer routes, like from south to north or from islands to continental Italy.

The closest airport to Lucca is Pisa. Pisa is about 15 miles from Lucca. Venice has it’s own airport. I checked on-line and Alitalia flies there via Milano. Cost is around US$250 – 300 round trip. Less if one way. I used the site
http://www.europebyair.com. It does a search of many inner-European airlines.
Here is a sample routing:
(PSA) Pisa, Italy 06:55 AM Thu 02/21
(MXP) Milan, Italy 07:55 AM Thu 02/21
Flight #: 1453
(MXP) Milan, Italy 09:50 AM Thu 02/21
(VCE) Venice, Italy 10:50 AM Thu 02/21
Hotel Recommendation for Lucca: "La Luna". It is centrally located in the heart of the walled city. Also, I highly recommend renting a bike, as Lucca is car-free. Many bike rental shop are available.
