Marco Radi (WG4, M. Botta group, IT) The best way to come to Bratislava is to take a plane to Bratislava or Vienna Airport Schwechat (Wien in German, Viedeň in Slovak) and from the Vienna Airport take a bus directly to Bratislava (performing each hour, 60 min trip duration). There are two companies Slovak Lines (name of their station in Bratislava: “Bratislava, AS” or also “Mlynské Nivy”) and Blagus (name of the station: “Nový Most”). You may find their timetables here: http://www.slovaklines.sk/fileadmin/user_upload/cestovne_poriadky/mal/102806a.pdf (connection Vienna-Bratislava is on the 2nd page there!) http://www.blaguss.sk/media/PDF/bratislava_vieden_blaguss.pdf Bratislava Smolenice: 53-77 km (depends on a rout) a bus connection from Bratislava to Smolenice will be organized. Schwechat – Bratislava: 55-69km direct bus connection (Slovak Lines and Blagus). Vienna – Bratislava 66-79 km bus (Slovak Lines, Blagus) or train connections (name of the train station in Bratislava is “Petržalka” or “Hlavná stanica – Main Station”).
