Tiny gateway to Greece's easternmost inhabited island.

Location
Kastelorizo Island, Greece
Kastelorizo Airport (IATA: KZS, ICAO: LGKJ) is a small regional airport serving Kastelorizo Island, also known as Megisti, the easternmost inhabited Greek island located just a few kilometers off the southern coast of Turkey. The airport provides a vital air link for the island's small permanent population and seasonal visitors. The airport operates limited scheduled services, primarily connecting Kastelorizo to Rhodes, which serves as the main regional hub for onward travel. Due to the island's extremely small size and population, the airport handles relatively few passengers annually and has minimal facilities. Kastelorizo Island gained wider international recognition after being featured in the 1991 Italian film 'Mediterraneo,' which won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. The airport plays a critical logistical role for this remote community, which has no road connections to the mainland.
Terminals
The airport has a single, very small terminal building with basic passenger facilities befitting the island's limited traffic.
Getting to & from
Given the island's tiny size, the airport is within easy walking distance or a short taxi ride from the main village of Kastelorizo.
Airlines here
Sky Express operates scheduled services connecting Kastelorizo to Rhodes, providing the island's primary air link.
