The E51 bus leaves every about 20 minutes from the bus station just outside the terminal, on your right; the ticket is about 6€ and you can purchase it on the right just before the exit. Otherwise, follow signs for the Trieste Airport train station (about 400 m, connected via covered bridge with the terminal), where a train running every 20 minutes will take you to the central train station.
