Getting there and around
Airport Athens is a busy European hub, well serviced by flights from most parts of the world. The swish new Eleftherios Venizelos international airport at Spata (27km/16.8mi east of Athens) opened in March 2001, making air travel to and from Greece a far more pleasant experience than it used to be. You can get to the airport by taking the metro to Ethniki Amina and then catching the E94 express airport bus (about 25-35 minutes). Metro Line 3 is scheduled to start operating to Athens airport in May 2004.
Public transport Public transport in the city is run by the Athens Urban Transport Organization (tel: 185). The transport system consists of buses, trolley buses, city center minibuses and a metro/electric train service.
