Located three kilometres south of Corfu town (Kérkira) in the area of Kanoni, opposite the islet of Pontikonissi, Corfu Airport is clean and modern with basic facilities and service. There are three or more flights to and from Athens every day and flights for Thessaloniki are available on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
There is one terminal building for both domestic and international flights with Greek Airlines, Olympic Airlines and Aegean Airlines as the main carriers. A host of other chartered carriers serve the airport, especially in the summer months.
Essential facilities include a bank and ATM, a money exchange booth, and a post office. There are specially adapted telephones and toilets for the physically disabled, as well as a health centre. Once through to the departure lounge, there is a large amount of seating, tax-free shopping, and a café and bar serving drinks, coffee and snacks.
There is a regular local bus service to and from the airport and Corfu town. Many of the larger hotels have their own free minibus service, and if you’re arriving on a package holiday, transfers to and from the airport are usually included.
By car, Corfu town is to the north on the Kérkira-Kanoni road. Taxis are also readily available outside the terminal; make sure you agree the price first. There is parking for 120 cars and 60 buses. An information desk is located in the Arrivals hall.
