There is a bus connecting airport and Volos bus station. Buses are waiting to pick up travelers after a plane lands, the cost form the airport to Volos Bus station is 3 €. Travellers of charter flights are transfered to their accommodation by their travelling agency. From Volos there are bus and train connections to other towns in Thessaly

[edit] By regional coach

Interurban coaches ("KTEL" buses) are by far the most convenient way to travel around Greece, as well as for intra-regional travelling. From Athens most of buses to Thessaly leaves from Terminal B, at Liossion Street.

[edit] By train

Trains (OSE) connects Volos, Larissa and Kalampaka with the rest of Greece. Travelling with ordinary trains can be cheaper, although a little bit slower, whereas choosing a fancy faster Intercity train will cost the same amount of money, or even more than a KTEL bus.
