Getting to the Conference and Local Transport

How to get to Cracow The International Balice Airport provides direct connections to a choice of major European airports (including Paris, London, Zurich, Frankfurt, Vienna, Copenhagen, Tel Aviv, New York, and Chicago.) Cracow lies at the crossroads of prin-cipal railway routes forming a convenient and reliable network of domestic train connections and several international ones, including daily services to Berlin, Vienna, Budapest, Prague, Dresden, and Kiev.) Car access is not difficult either, yet car access, parking, and traffic in the centre are subject to special limitations and regulations. The best solution is resorting to guarded car parks and using public transport to move around the city. Cracow features a well-developed bus and tram network.
