USEFUL INFORMATION
The kick-off meeting will be held in Cagliari in the beautiful location of
the Cittadella dei Musei.
This area, on a hill overlooking the city, was
first used by Phoenicians and Romans; during the Pisan period this area was
just out of the city walls ("Castello") and here was located the old
arsenal. From it one can enjoy one of the best view of the city, including the
harbour, the ponds, the Poetto beach and a large part of the Gulf of the
Angels.
After a long restoration (1955-1970) sponsored by the University of
Cagliari, the Cittadella dei Musei is now a museum and study complex that
houses several Sardinia's heritage museums.
The English homepage of the airport of Cagliari can be found at
http://www.sogaer.it/en.
If you click on "Flight Timetable" and then on "Seasonal fligths" you can
find the list of flights departing from and arriving in Cagliari. Please
take care of the date in which the flight is operated ("Validity") and of
the day of the week ("Freq" : 1=Monday, 2=Tuesday, etc.)
If you cannot find a convenient direct flight your best option is probably
to fly to Milano or Rome (the Italian hubs) and take a flight to Cagliari
from there. These are the main companies flying on these two routes:
- Meridiana,
- AirOne part of Star Alliance.
Alitalia is also flying Rome-Cagliari.
The cost of a taxi from the airport to the hotels in the center of Cagliari is approximately 20 Euros.
Alternatively, you can take a bus from the airport to the station.
Buses are quite frequent (every 15, 30 or 50 minutes depending on the hours). The last bus from the airport to the station leaves at 23.30 pm.
A list of hotels can be found on: www.bookings.it/Cagliari.
We suggest the following four hotels, from which the venue of the meeting is
easily reachable either by foot or by bus. Furthemore they are in a lively
