Moldova is not very easy-to-reach country if you want to do it in a cheap way. Even from Poland which lies pretty close. But one can manage. Getting here, I choosed the direct bus from Warsaw through Cracow by Eurolines. Cost - around 60 euro.
Like for the bus it was quite comfortable, not many people, so I had two seats for me, very warm, the movies going on the screen and very nice company. Although, to lead a proper conversation (like, if you belive in God and why - as I was asked just after I took my seat) Russian or Romanian language is a must. English is not too common.
When you're going to Moldova from somewhere far away - the only option is a flight. You can choose few companies from several European cities, mostly Italian like Bolonia, Milan, Rome and Verona. A lot of flights is possible also from Romanian Bucharest and from Moscow. Less often flights are available from London, Istanbul and few others, even Dubai.
The whole schedule available on the airport website:

If you'd like to travel cheaply there is an option for you - Wizzair.
It covers two Italian airports - Rome Ciampino and Venice Treviso.
It flies to Chisinau from both cities twice a week - on Tuesday and Saturday and the way back the same.
Prices start from 30 euros one way, but you should look for it 3 months in advance.
There is also another option to visit Moldova - coming from the neighbouring countries - Romania and Ukraine. You will find plenty here.
By train: like I read, trains are not popular mean of transportaion in Moldova, they are slow and the infrastructure is really poor. But you can use it to get here from Moscow, Kiev, Odessa or Bucharest.
By bus: from almost every big Romanian city, mostly form Iasi - few times a day. Same situation is with Ukrainian Odessa.
As you see it is not that bad with the transport when you start looking for it ;) So check your options, maybe you'll find out it's for you easier than you think!
