The airport is so close to the centre that taking a tax is a waste of
money. The bus takes 15 minutes or so. But you need change. (Or you
wave a big note and go for free because the busdriver can't change it,
but I don't know what risk of fines you take doing this).

I'm local. Taxi is really waste of money. Bus is OK. Price for bus is
1.40 Litas or less than 50 euro cents. I don't know but there is
another choice: there are micro buses that costs 3 Litas (less than one
1 euro). It is faster and more comfortable than bus. I believe numbers
15 and 100 will take you almost to EuroPython hotel. I will take some
photos and will draw something on map to illustrate everything later
next week.<br>

Fines are still very low compared to other countries. It is
approximately 6 euros. That might be cheaper than taxi :-) And I
believe nobody will waste their time for fining foreigner because there
is little chance that they will speak english. From other side
experience might be not the pleasant one.<br>
