Transportation and TRAVEL CONNECTIONS
By Air Thessaloniki is connected by air to major destinations in Greece and Europe. The Macedonia Airport in Thessaloniki is the second largest airport unit in Greece, connecting the city to many European capitals and several other European cities by direct flights (e.g. London, Milan, Rome, Paris, Vienna, Prague, Munich, Berlin, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Larnaca etc). Via Athens (35 minutes flight time, 10-16 flights daily), Thessaloniki can be easily reached from anywhere in the world. Thessaloniki's Macedonia airport also offers direct flights to other major cities of Greece and many Greek islands. The Macedonia International Airport is located 16 km away from the city. It ranks among the safest of European airports. The two runways of this airport are not large enough to accommodate Trans-Atlantic flights. For this purpose, one of the runways is currently being extended to the Thermaic Gulf. Thessaloniki airport (code: SKG) is easily accessible from the city centre. There are buses and taxis between the airport and the city centre and the journey takes about 20 minutes. A taxi ride costs about 25 euros. Bus No. 78, which stops at both the train station and the Aristotelous Square, is an ideal route. It runs between 6.00 a.m. and 11.00 p.m. The bus fare is 4 euro.
By Bus
Long distance buses connect Thessaloniki to every major Greek city and several cities abroad. The journey from Athens to Thessaloniki takes around six hours, with a 20-minute halt at a wayside restaurant with cloakroom facilities. The cost is about 40 euro one way.
