Transportation
Travel options from the International Airport of Athens and from the city of
Athens to Patras can be found
here.
The local organizers suggest the following for those who will fly into Athens:
You can travel to Patras from Athens Airport either by train
(proastiakos), or by bus. We suggest the second. After you get your
luggage and get out of the airport, next to the taxis, there are
buses. You board bus X93 (Athens Airport Express for Kifisos, 24 hour
service, running every 35-40 minutes) and get off at the bus station at
KIFISOS. The ride lasts about an hour. There you get a bus for Patras.
That ride lasts about 2 hours and 45 minutes. The total cost for both tickets
is about 20 Euros.
Conference Venue
Registration and all talks will take place at the University of Patras,
Mathematics and Biology Building, Room 62. Please see the
Campus map.
