- Airport hours, customs, slots and restrictions must be confirmed with the airport. Runway length alone does not establish operational suitability.

Greece's hub, 40 minutes east of the Acropolis and the Athens Riviera, with a general-aviation apron and several executive handlers. Summer island-hopping traffic makes it a busy positioning base; slots are coordinated but generally available. Open 24 hours with CIQ.
