Travel Information
Information given here mainly concerns the conference participants arriving by airplane from distant European and overseas countries; it is reasonable assumed that those coming from neighboring and other nearby countries already do have some experience and are aware of the most convenient means of traveling to Serbia. The additional information can be obtained by sending a message to Conference Secretariat (E-mail: ictt2013@elfak.ni.ac.rs). Arrival to Serbia Participants arriving by plane will be landing at Belgrade airport, about 250 km away from Nis. The national carrier, JAT Airways (http://www.jat.com/active/en/home.html), serves all major European and some overseas destinations, and major European carriers fly to Belgrade as well. After Arrival - Public Transportation Participants can use the airport bus service from airport to downtown Belgrade (about 20 km); each arriving flight is followed by airport buses to downtown, whereas the buses in reverse direction, connecting the main points in Belgrade with the airport, run about 2 hours before each departing flight. Taxi service is also available. The airport bus has a stop near the Belgrade railway station and the adjacent main bus terminal. There is a regular railway connection between Belgrade and Nis, but the train is less convenient than public bus, which is more frequent and (using the major highway route) considerably faster. A trip from Belgrade to Nis by bus takes about 3 hours. On the ground The City of Niš is positioned at the crossroads, connected by road and railroad with many important cities in the region – Belgrade, Sofia, and Skopje. Although there is a train line Belgrade-Niš, bus transportation is recommended. There are many departures from Belgrade to Niš and vice versa. One-way ticket is approximately 15 Euros and the ride is 3 to 3.5 hours long. Public transportation in Niš Taxi transportation • Naissus Taxi: +381 18 22 99 99 |
