The published hour is a fair-weather figure. This is a road journey through Mesogeion Avenue into the middle of Athens, and at rush hour it takes considerably longer than the metro.
Boarding is restricted on the route from the airport, so it does not fill up before it reaches you.
It is the only recorded way into Athens that runs right through the night: OASA operates the airport express lines on a 24-hour basis.

Two separate tickets: the metro at EUR 9.00 and the hydrofoil from EUR 14.00 do not cover each other, and no tickets are issued on board.
The metro ends at Piraeus, not at the quay. Aegean Flying Dolphins' Piraeus ticket agency is at Gate E8.
Aegean Flying Dolphins' timetable sheet lists other October times than its booking page, and the booking page shows no sailing on 31 October: check the sailing when you book.
