When evaluating how to get from Ulm to Gjilan, the bus offers a unique balance of convenience and sustainability. While a flight from nearby airports like Stuttgart or Memmingen to Pristina is faster, the total transit time—including airport security, check-in, and the transfer from Pristina to Gjilan—often adds up.

With 3 daily buses available, the flexibility matches that of other transport modes but at a fraction of the cost.
