By Plane:
The Sandro Pertini International Airport at Turin (Torino) Caselle is situated 16 km from the city centre and has very good connections with many European cities, including many low cost options.
Overseas participants arriving at the major Europeans hub, usually have a connecting flight to Torino Airport within two hours.
There is a bus connecting every 30 minutes the Airport to downtown Torino, near the Porta Nuova Railway Station, from 5:15 to 22:30. Cost is 5.50 euros (one way).
Taxis are available too: approximate cost is 40 euros from the airport to downtown.
Do not use the train from the airport because the line ends in a small station far away from downtown.

Main hotels and the Conference Center are within walking distance from Porta Nuova Railway Station. We recommend participants not to rent a car, unless they are planning out of town excursions. Traffic is heavy in Torino, parking is difficult and there is a very good network of public transportation.
