• By airplane<br />
In the summer, Corfu is a major tourist destination. As a result, there is a large<br />
number of low-cost charter flights from many European cities to its airport Ioannis<br />
Kapodistrias, which is located 2 km away from the capital of the island. Furthermore,<br />
there are frequent flights from the airport Eleftherios Venizelos at Athens. The<br />
duration of that flight is 50 minutes. Corfu is also connected with the city of<br />
Thessaloniki.<br />
The national flag carrier OLYMPIC AIRLINES flies to Corfu three times a day<br />
with good connections to its international network, while Greek regional start-up<br />
airline AEGEAN flies twice a day.<br />
Corfu is however well served from May through to October with charter flights<br />
from all major European charter airlines, offering good connections to most U.K.,<br />
German, French, Belgian, Dutch, Swiss, Austrian, Scandinavian, and East European<br />
cities.<br />

• By ferry<br />
A more adventurous alternative route is with the ferry from Italy, but this requires<br />
additional traveling days. During the summer there is daily connection to Italy<br />
(Venice and Trieste) by ferry. Furthermore, from the town of Patras there are several<br />
itineraries for the island of Corfu, throughout the year. The duration of the journey is<br />
7 hours. You can also visit the island of Corfu from Igoumenitsa (1 hour and 30<br />
minutes).<br />
