Blue Star lists one sailing a day to Mykonos in October, at 07:30 from Gate E7 with two calls on the way; report at the gate an hour before. The first airport metro reaches Piraeus about 07:13, so the same morning only the all-night X96 bus gets you there in time.

Two separate tickets: the metro at EUR 9.00 and the ferry from EUR 53.00 do not cover each other, and Blue Star does not issue tickets on board.

The metro ends at Piraeus, not at the quay. The Mykonos boat leaves from Gate E7: check it on the operator's port map.

If the metro is closed, the X96 express bus runs from the airport to Piraeus all night, about 90 minutes at EUR 5.50.
