Thessaloniki airport buses are the only public transportation means serving Macedonia Airport. The airport buses connect SKG Airport to Thessaloniki city center and all the major transportation hubs. 

Depending on your final destination in Thessaloniki and on the time of day, you choose among the following bus lines:

Bus Route 01X directly connects the airport to Thessaloniki city center, the Central Railway Station, and the “Makedonia” Intercity Bus Station (KTEL). Buses run from 6:10 am to 10:40 pm, every 20-25 minutes, and reach the city center in approximately 40 minutes and their final stop (KTEL Station) in 50-55 minutes. 

Bus Line 01N has the same route with more intermediate stops. It runs only during the night, from 11:10 pm to 05:55 am. Thus, although the routes’ frequency is almost the same (every 30 minutes), the total journey to the city center lasts around 50 minutes and to Makedonia Coach Terminal (KTEL) 60 minutes. 

Our Tip: From 11:30 pm to 00:40 am, you’ll find three routes heading from the airport to the Intercity Bus Terminal (KTEL) via IKEA (Bus 01N).

From Ikea Station, you will find bus services to every eastbound destination of Thessaloniki. Bus Line 79 leaves SKG airport every 30 minutes from 06:05 am to 10:30 pm and gets to Ikea Station in about 10 minutes.

Our Tip: Bus Line 79A leaves SKG Airport and heads to KTEL Chalkidiki.
