The largest and busiest airport in Greece is Athens Airport (ATH), also known as Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport, named after the famous Greek Prime Minister who made significant contributions to the development of aviation in the country. It is a major hub for international travel and the main international airport serving Greece. It offers flights to North America, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and many destinations in Europe.
The second largest airport in the country is Thessaloniki Airport (SKG) located towards the northern part of the country.

Rhodes is a vibrant urban centre known for its rich history, cultural heritage and beautiful beaches. Rhodes Airport is the fourth busiest airport in Greece.
Situated on the island of Corfu, Corfu Airport (CFU) is near the city of Kerkyra and a main airport for handing the influx of travelers to Greece during the busy summer months, between April and October. Like Thessaloniki and Rhodes Airports, Corfu Airport also serves a number of domestic and international flights, mainly throughout the Europe region.
