Rail travel provides direct city-center to junction connections and predictable station access compared with buses or flights. Buses serve similar corridors with longer surface travel times and variable stops; flights do not serve this short corridor directly and would require travel to and from airports. For door-to-door trips between Thessaloniki and Paleofarsalos, regional trains reduce transfer complexity and offer reliable timetables for connections.

Plus, it’s a greener choice, reducing your carbon footprint
