Gateway to the Cyclades capital island of Syros.

Location

Syros Island, Greece

Syros Airport (IATA: JSY, ICAO: LGSO) is a small regional airport serving Syros Island, the administrative capital of the Cyclades prefecture in Greece. It is located near the island's main city of Ermoupoli and handles predominantly domestic traffic, with seasonal increases during the summer tourist period.
