InSpace
Hello EUROAVIAns, we are finally announcing our second International Event: InSpace Symposium, as the name suggests the activities during this event will be related to the theme of the World Space Week 2023 that will be “Space & Entrepreneurship”.
There will be conferences, roundtables and a workshop to explore various topics in this broad field of engineering, but there will also be time to explore the beautiful city of Forlì and to have a lot of fun.
So don’t hesitate, subscribe to the event and see you in Forlì.
Schedule of the event
Hostel Location
If you have the possibility of directly arriving at the Forlì airport “Luigi Ridolfi”, just at 3 minutes walk from the airport there is a bus stop where you can take the line 7 FIERA bus which takes you at “Libertà-Scuole” stop. On the opposite side of the street there’s another bus stop called “Libertà-Scuole” and there you could take the line 4 CAVA and then proceed as in the first case or you can walk and in less than 15 min you should arrive to Foresteria Universitaria.
From the Bologna Airport it is recommended to get the Marconi Express train or the bus (one way tickect 7€), which, from the airport, takes you directly to the central train station of Bologna. There you can buy the train ticket Bologna Centrale – Forlì and there are several options: regional trains, frecciarossa (high speed train), and intercity trains. We suggest to get a regional train whose frequency is between 30 min and 10 min which is less than the other train options and is also cheaper, it costs 6,80€. Once arrived at the Forlì train station you can buy the bus tickets “zona 1” (1,30€) either in the station or at the bus stop which is in front of the station. The bus line is the 4 CAVA and leaves you at Piazza Saffi, then your destination is at 2 minutes walk.University Location
In this case we suggest to walk to the bus stop “Libertà-Scuole” and take the bus line 7 RONCO or Aeroporto, it takes you in front of the university.

MEASURES IN FORCE UNTIL 30 APRIL 2023
In Italy, is no longer mandatory to show the “Green Pass” to access facilities and means of transportation, nor it is to wear FFP2 type respiratory protective devices.
It is however recommended to wear respiratory protection devices in all public indoor places.
Travellers from China must undergo an antigen-test (swab) upon the arrival at the airport.
It should be remembered that if you are undergoing a molecular or antigenic test in order to return from Italy, please take into consideration the possibility that the test gives a positive result. In this case, it is not possible to travel by commercial means and you are subject to the quarantine and containment procedures required.
Also, having had contact with a person testing positive to COVID-19 and presenting symptoms leads to the obligation to undergo a test, with what follows in case of positivity.
It is therefore recommended to be careful during the trip, taking the necessary safety measures at all times.
