the pension owners also give lifts in their mini buses. Ask anyone for directions
- it is well known . THE PROGRAMAll classes will be taught by George
Vithoulkas. The week will consist of live and video cases, with analysis and theory
based on George's 40 yrs experience.The day is planned to begin at 9.30am, and
end at 2.30/3pm. Video cases are also shown in the evenings before live follow-ups
the next day, for those not familiar with the case. This schedule may change.
THE GROUPThe International group is taught by George in English, and
will consist of students from all round the world. The class is usually booked
to capacity (130), (we expect this years UK group to fill up quickly - so book
early!). The experience of the group usually varies between 1 and 20 years! TRAVEL
TO GREECE FROM UKThere are no direct flights to Alonissos - only to neighbouring
island Skiathos. Skiathos: There are many direct flights to Skiathos. Charter/holiday
flights operate from Gatwick, Manchester and many regional airports. However they
only travel on weekdays. So in order not to miss any of the course (if you are
only staying one week) you need to find a flight on a Monday or Tuesday or Sunday
evening. If you travel for a two week period there is no problem as you can fit
the course week in the middle. Or: Athens: At week-ends you can get charters or
scheduled flights to Athens and then either an internal domestic flight (Olympic)
to Skiathos ( this departs from the same airport and can be booked by your travel
or flight agent from the UK) or, via a taxi from the airport, take an air-conditioned
coach from Alkyon Travel Office, Academia 97, central Athens - to Ag. Konstantinos
( a port on the mainland east coast - this takes about 2 hrs) and then a hydrofoil
flying dolphin or Seacat service to Alonissos - 2 hrs. This way travel could be
done for instance Sunday to Sunday or Monday to Monday. Call Alkyon Travel for
details and/or to book : 0030 210 384 3220. or 0030 210 3832545. e-mail: athens@alkyontravel.com.They

Skiathos you can take the Flying Dolphin (hydrofoil) which takes one and a half
hours, depending on stops, and costs about 27 Euros return or the ferry (2-3 hrs)
