Location
Leros Island, Greece
Leros Airport (IATA: LRS, ICAO: LGLE) is a small domestic airport serving Leros Island in the Dodecanese archipelago of Greece. It provides essential air connectivity for this relatively remote Aegean island, linking it to Athens and other Greek destinations.

Taxis are the primary ground transport option available at the airport for onward travel to Leros's main towns such as Lakki and Agia Marina.
