Airport Transportation in Chios

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Chios Island National Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

Our airport transportation in Chios takes you from Chios Island National Airport to hotels in Chios Town and around its harbor, to the old mansions and orchards of Kampos, and to the beach hotels of Karfas and Agia Fotia.

Chios Airport Transfers

Chios airport transfers start outside the arrivals exit of the small terminal, where your driver waits with a name sign. All flights are domestic, so there is no passport control, and we track your flight, so the pickup follows your real landing time if wind delays it. Choose a vehicle for your party, from a sedan for two to a van for a family or group.

Each Chios airport transfer goes door to door to your hotel, apartment or Kampos estate, or to the harbor in Chios Town. Taking a ferry on to another island? We drive you to the port; give us your sailing time when you book. Staying in the mastic villages of Pyrgi or Mesta in the south? Enter the address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.

Chios Airport Shuttle

Our Chios airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, with no stops for other passengers on the way. It leaves as soon as you have your bags, with room for suitcases, strollers and beach gear. It suits families and groups staying together in a Kampos mansion, a Karfas beach hotel or an apartment in Chios Town.

Landing at Chios Airport

Chios Island National Airport (JKH), named "Omiros" after Homer, is the airport for the island of Chios in the eastern Aegean. It sits just south of Chios Town, in the Kampos area, and is run by the Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority.

All flights are domestic, so there is no passport control. Aegean Airlines and Sky Express fly to Athens, Olympic Air and Sky Express to Thessaloniki, and Sky Express also links Chios with Lemnos, Mytilene, Samos and Rhodes. You leave the aircraft on the apron and walk to the small terminal, where baggage reclaim is quick, and pre-booked drivers meet passengers outside the arrivals exit.

Greece is on Eastern European Time (UTC+2) and switches to UTC+3 for daylight saving time from late March to late October.

Entry requirements and local notes

Schengen entry. Greece is in the Schengen area. All flights to Chios are domestic, so travelers from outside the Schengen area clear passport control at their first Schengen airport, usually Athens. Non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), fully operational since 10 April 2026; the planned ETIAS travel authorization is not yet in operation.

Wind delays. Flights use smaller aircraft on a short runway, so strong winds can occasionally delay them. Keep the flight number on your booking up to date.

Kampos and village addresses. Many Kampos estates and village houses have no street number, so give the property name and a map pin when you book.

Euro and cash. Greece uses the euro; carry some cash for small purchases.
