Could anyone tell me whether the new Athens airport is now linked to
the road to Corinth? Or Is is possible to get onto the Corinth road
and avoid the city? Any ideas welcome. Laura

yabbut... you can take the new road to Metamorphosi (14 minutes,
1.80 Euro), turning for Pireus at the end of the new road from
airport then hop down to the junction with the Corinth road,
turning right towards Corinth.

You don't exactly go into Athens (define "Athens"), although
there may be some local traffic to deal with after leaving the
new road at Metamorphosi.


Hope this helps.
