 | Pula Flights and Airline Tips | 1 - 10 of 10 |  |
Pula Airport is about 20 minutes west of Pula and has all the advantages of a small airport. There are no queues for baggage or check-in and you should be able to connect with the airport bus for transfers into town. BUT don't depend on the information here or in a guide book. Check the websites before you travel.
From what I could gather, flighs from Scandinavia, Ireland, UK fly in here as well as internal flights from Zagreb. The new Ryanair connection from Dublin wil mean a big increase in Irish visitors to the area. The facilities at Pula Airport are not extensive but there is every thing you need for a routine arrival or departure.
A nice feature of the airport is the artwork hanging all over the terminal. They don't just stop at paintings by local artists though and in the departure area, massive chunks of frescoes from village churches are mounted on the walls. I thought this was a nice touch in a small regional airport.

 The map of the town by croisbeauty
by airplane
there is an international airport in close outskirts of the town (5km)
by train
there is direct connection to Trieste, Ljubljana and Zagreb
by bus
there are everyday connections from Trieste (Italy), Rijeka, Ljubljana (Slovenia), Zagreb, Split ....
by car
by motorway, so called Istrian Ypsilon
by boat
only in the summer season
I do not recommend the train because the only connection from Zagreb to Pula goes through Slovenia, and it takes too much time to get Pula. The bus is more convinient. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

The next international airports are Triest-Ronchi, Ljubljana and Zagreb.
There are flights with Croatia Airlines from Munich, Vienna and Zürich, although via Zagreb to Pula and Rijeka. Leave a Comment

 Arriving with Autotrans by Ekaterinburg
As well as the regional buses there are long-distance and international departures from here also.
The bus to Pula Airport departs from Terminal 1 just outside the main door. Like all the towns I visited the routes and times to the different locations are clearly posted on a large board by the main entrance.
WARNING: Do not depend on information from guide books for planning itineraries in Istria or you will probaly end up with some serious problems. The information is frequently inaccurate and you need to check the websites to have any idea of current timetables and prices.
The two most commonly used bus companies in Istria are Autotrans and Brioni Pula. The links for both are posted below. Theme: BusPhone: 500 012 (Tickets and reservationWebsite: www.autotrans.hr Other Contact: www.brioni.hr

 My little Lancia by Anita_Porec
If you don't need a car, you can come here by bus and leave any time you want as well There is regular service from Porec to Rijeka, Zagreb, Kopar...and around. Rovinj is actually even more popular with bus connections, even to Belgrade, and is not too far away.
The closest rail station is Kanfanar, a small town almost halfway to Pula...but still very close. Another one is in Pula itself.
You can come by BOAT from Venice as well.
Anyhow, whatever you do...there are tons of cops driving around, especially at night, and the $$ you have to put out for speeding ....uf!
And yes, don't be stupid (or be verrrry careful) if you get cought drinking and driving - bye, bye licence.
One more thing - in US and Canada, we tend to drive out to clubs, get hammered and than take a cab home and leave our cars wherever to wait for us until the next day. Don't do this here, the locals don't dare do something like this...so make sure you leave it or drive it home. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

We arrived by train from Ljubljana...ironically it was the hottest day, and not one we wanted to spend in a railway carriage, but still...that's luck, I suppose. From Ljubljana, you have to make sure you are in the right carriage, as at a junction, the carriages split, some heading to Rijeka, some to Trieste, and just one to Pula. Leaving, we took a boat to Venezia...the proper ferry wasn't running on the day we wanted to go, so we took one of the many excursion boats going there for one day, and it worked out cheaper and faster than the ferry...plus the company offered free transfers between accommodation and port. There are many travel agencies in the old city offering similar trips.
Most of the hotels and the youth hostel are located a few kilometres south of the centre, so bus is the only sensible way of getting around. You can pick up good maps of the town at travel agencies and at the tourist office, which are fairly close to the station...handy if you've just arrived. Be warned that many of the streets marked on the map don't correspond with the streetnames in reality! Leave a Comment Theme: Train

We got there by bus. I was 18 at that time so didn't mind to sit for quite a long time as it was the cheapest way to get there.
And what happened?...Our bus broke down. So we had to wait outside the bus, in the afternoon when it was so damn hot, till they came to repair our bus. And later we found out we were just a few miles away from the camping!!
We didn't do many day trips as we spend most of the time at the beach. But a few times we travelled by bus what was a good thing to do. Leave a Comment Theme: Other
