Athens International Airport (ATH) is Greece’s main international gateway and a full-service hub for carriers like Aegean and an arrival point for most European and long-haul airlines; low-cost carriers also operate seasonally. Situated about 20 km east of central Athens, journey times to Syntagma or Monastiraki are typically 35–50 minutes by the X95 express bus (fares around €6–€10) or 30–40 minutes by taxi depending on traffic (metered fare generally higher). The suburban Proastiakos train and metro connections can be faster during peak hours and are usually the most economical option. Pros: modern facilities, wide airline choice and good ground transport links; cons: can be busy in summer and transfer times may rise with rush-hour traffic.
