After the conference there will be two options for transportation from the University Center "Bachinovo" to Sofia: c) on June 24th (Friday) at 18:00; a bus from University Center "Bachinovo" to Sofia airport (Terminal 2); ETA: 20:30 h, and d) on June 25th (Saturday) at 7:30; a bus from University Center "Bachinovo" to Sofia airport (Terminal 2); ETA: 10:00 h. Trasportation at own cost can be booked via various companies. We recommend to participants of BIOMATH 2016 the company MATO ( http://mato.bg/), which we used in 2015. Please indicate that you are travelling to BIOMATH 2016, so that the driver takes you exactly to the venue of the conference. Please indicate if you will be paying by credit card to ensure that the driver has with him a portable credit card terminal. The cost of the trip varies from EUR69 to EUR85 depending on the car you select. The price is for the trip, that is, it is the same for one, two or three people. The driver will wait for you at the airport with a board with your name. The operational manager Mr Anton Antonov is available at +359-877011018 to assist in any time. NOTE: The bus from Sofia Airport on Sunday, 19th june, starting at 14:30 is a special private bus provided by the organizers, there will be no other such special bus on that day. For those who are interested in public transport from Sofia to Blagoevgrad: there are several public buses on that day. However, we do not recommend such transportation, as there is not a public shattle bus directly from the airport to the bus station which is quite distant from the airport and one should change two buses to reach the bus station, or take a taxi). Besides, the bus station for the public buses is close to the central railway station in the norden part of the city of Sofia and it takes more than half an hour for the buses to cross the city on the way to Blagoevgrad (which is direction south). If you cannot reach Sofia Airport by 14:30 on Sunday, 19th june, then we recommend to overnight in Sofia (in the hotel of BAS) and take the early special bus the next day (this is again a private special bus starting from that hotel, not a public transport).
