Gateway to the butterfly-shaped Aegean island of Astypalaia.

Location

Astypalaia Island, Greece

Astypalaia Airport serves the small Greek island of Astypalaia in the Dodecanese group of the Aegean Sea. The airport handles seasonal domestic and limited international traffic, primarily during the summer tourist season when visitor numbers increase significantly. The airport is modest in scale, befitting the island's small population of around 1,500 permanent residents. It primarily serves connections to Athens and other Greek islands, making it a vital link for locals and tourists alike. Due to the island's relative remoteness, the airport plays a critical role in connectivity, supplementing ferry services that are the other main means of reaching Astypalaia.

Terminals

The airport has a single small terminal building typical of minor Greek island airports.

Getting to & from

Taxis and limited local bus services connect the airport to the main town of Chora and the port of Pera Gialos.
