In August this year, myself and my boyfriend travelled to Corfu, the holiday was amazing, the people were welcoming and lovely and we would definitely return. The airport however, what sort of place for tourists is this? On arrival at the airport to return home, there were five UK flights leaving in the space of an hour, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Glasgow and Bristol, as well as inter-Greek flights to Kos and Kefalonia etc. As you can imagine it was sheer pandemonium, the Birmingham flight was instructed to stand outside and queue to even enter the airport building, which was our flight, and in scorching 38 degree heat, this is not acceptable. When we finally got  Read the complete review

My review is mainly about Corfu airport, not the country. I think the country is very good, the scenery fantastic and the locals are friendly always glad to say hello. Due to fly out back to Manchester late on a Friday night, handed my passport into baggage area to get weighed and collect boarding pass.Made way to metal detector area (2 of) only one metal detector machine was being used to usher 300 people through for two flights (Manchester & Bristol). I was asked to put small bag, coat, coins, keys, electricals, passport into tubs and collect other side. Got frisked turned around to get belongings from tubs and 'UK passport' was gone (in the ...  Read the complete review

The airport at Corfu has a very small runway, which can worry some people. The run way is surrounded by water it looks very pretty even tho taking off and landing can be scary when the weather is bad. i have been to Corfu a few times and it is a very nice place. The airport it fairly small, the toilets are not very nice, but then again most loos over there aren't as they cant flush loo paper. The airport has a few little shops were you can buy hot and cold snacks as well as last Minuit gifts for yourself, family or friends. There is a restaurant at the airport that over looks the check-in places which isn't very nice to see when you are eating ...  Read the complete review

We have been to this airport on several occasions. it has not changed much since we have been going for three years . As you come into land it does not look much like an airport just a concrete mass. It has a very short run way which can be quite worrying if it is your first time to this airport. However once you have landed you only have a short walk into the airport. In arrivals it is tiny. It only has a couple of very tiny belts for your luggage to be collected from. As there are numourous flights arriving at the same time you are often sharing the belt with two plane loads which can be fun trying to get you case off without knocking someone over. The departure ...  Read the complete review

I am not in the habit of writing reviews on airports but I wanted to write something about my time in Corfu, I stayed in Kerkyra, and this was the first item on the list! I travelled to Corfu (from Gatwick)for the first time in May this year to begin a 2 week holiday. The first time I saw the airport (from the sky) I couldn't believe how tiny it appeared, and on closer inspection it wasn;t much bigger! The runway was so short I didn't think we were ever going to stop before it ran out! Anyways, the journey from the plane to the terminal building appears to be about 20 feet and could be walked in about 10 secs but you all know the ...  Read the complete review
