For public transportation in Chania, you can use Urban Buses.
We will have dedicated buses coming directly to the venue. Dedicated buses will display the line number 23, or occasionally 18. Our volunteers will be available at departure points on Monday 01/07 and Tuesday 02/07 to guide you.

In case you miss the dedicated buses, or just want to be more flexible, the venue area is accessible from bus line 18 “Kounoupidiana”, which departs every 30 minutes.
Line 18 “Kounoupidiana” has two bus stops outside of University Campus, at the University Gate (right before the traffic lights) and at “Chalkiadakis SuperMarket”, near the PEM School (Point C in the map of the venue area). Our volunteers will also be at these bus stops on Monday 01/07 and Tuesday 02/07 to guide you to the venue. The Science Building, where ACAI-2019/HAISS-2019 is held, is a 10-minute walk from both bus stops.
Also, line 18 has multiple bus stops after the University, at Kounoupidiana town, where there are several places for lunch (nearby town highlighted on the map).
Bus Fares:
Regular Ticket: 1.70 euro (ticket bought inside bus 2.50 euro)
Student Ticket (need to show your student id card): 1.20 euro (ticket bought inside bus 2.00 euro)
Please buy your tickets in advance. Tickets purchased inside the bus are more expensive, and it is more time consuming for everyone.
You can purchase bus tickets either from ticket machines right next to most bus stops or from information desks and kiosks. Ticket machines are available outside the University Campus (near the PEM School, Point C on map), Agora Square and 1866 Square, among other places. Information desks are available at Agora Square and 1866 Square.
