How to reach Niš?

By air

Constantine the Great Airport is an international airport in Niš that is located 5 km from the city center (http://nis-airport.com/en/). Currently, the summer flight schedule for 2016 includes two lines held by WizzAir (www.wizzair.com) to and from Malmö, Sweden and Euro Airport Basel/Mulhouse/Freiburg – Switzerland/France/Germany. Both lines are on Wednesdays and Sundays. If new flights/lines are announced, we will publish the information on our website.

Nikola Tesla Airport in Belgrade (www.beg.aero/en) is located 254 km north of Niš and has more frequent flights to and from all around Europe and the Mediterranean. During the Conference, a special shuttle service will be provided to transport the participants from the Belgrade Airport to Niš city center, and vice versa. More details about the timetable and prices of this service will be given in due time.

Sofia Airport in Sofia, Bulgaria (https://www.sofia-airport.bg/en/passengers) is located 169 km away from Niš. This is not very convenient, except in case you would like to rent a car, since the regular transportation from Sofia to Niš and vice versa includes only two busses and one train departures daily. Moreover, the border should be crossed.

Skopje Alexander the Great Airport in Skopje, Macedonia (http://skp.airports.com.mk/) is located 200 km from Niš. Although the number of busses and trains from Skopje to Niš and vice versa is larger than from Sofia to Niš (and vice versa), the trip lasts for about 4.5 hours because there is a border crossing and this is not a direct line, but it stops in many towns along the way.

Prishtina International Airport (http://www.airportpristina.com/) should be avoided as a final landing point because there is no direct public transportation from Prishtina to Niš. Moreover, people from foreign countries are unable to pass the administrative crossing Merdare on the road from Prishtina to Niš because there is no official Serbian border control and the foreign passengers are redirected to the official border crossings in the neighboring countries Macedonia (306 km from the airport to Niš) or Montenegro (362 km from the airport to Niš).

Transportation in Niš

Public transportation in Niš
Niš has public transportation, but almost all the venues (the Faculty, majority of recommended hotels and accommodations, restaurants, etc.) can easily be reached by foot (they are within walking distance).

Taxi transportation
There are many taxi companies in Niš, and it is recommended to call them and request a ride rather than to stop them on the street, because there are also unlicensed taxies that drive without the taximeter.
