Car Hire Zakynthos Airport

Popular with those wanting to party in Zante, Zakynthos airport is a Greek airport with very special rules due to a particular creature that resides nearby. Flights are not permitted to take off or land between 10pm-5 am due to the Loggerhead Sea Turtles that come to Kalamaki beach to lay their eggs.

As with the other Greek airports, work is being carried out to bring about substantial improvement, the end result being more check-in desks, a new fire station and a remodeled terminal among other things.

All flights bar a few domestic ones are seasonal and will see around 2 million people arrive each year. Numbers after Covid restrictions began to ease saw the total number of passengers almost more than double from 430,000 in 2020 to 1.1million in 2021.
