CFU CORFU TT0107 /221750 |
General: |
The only airport of the island and one of the busiest in Greece. Runway sits off the edge of the Kanóni peninsular which offers excellent views of the landing planes, but makes for an interesting approach |
Appearance: |
At the time of visiting the airport was undergoing a major refurbishment and expansion |
Domestic
I have not arrived on a domestic flight at this airport
International
After landing you are bussed to the terminal and over to either a Schengen or non-Schengen door depending on where you have arrived from. Non-Schengen flights go through a small immigration hall and then into baggage reclaim, whilst the Schengen flights go straight through to the small baggage reclaim area. There are a couple of belts and very limited space. There is a short corridor that acts as the customs area and then you are out into the arrivals hall
Immigration was speedy and efficient
The baggage reclaim area is quite small with just a couple of belts and not much space around them - not then helped when none of the bags arrive as they were left in London so there were long queues of people trying to lodge lost luggage claims.
There was no distinct customs area, rather a corridor you pass through from baggage reclaim to Arrivals where there were a couple of staff standing around
Regular buses run from the airport into the centre of Corfu where they connect with buses to all other parts of the island
Domestic
I have not flown domestically from this airport
International
There is a large checkin area with lots of desks available, unfortunately at present this is the last area with spare space in the airport - the security screening area is quite cramped and empties straight into the very small departures lounge which has very limited seating for all the passengers who wished to use it. From the departures lounge you are bussed across to the planes for boarding.
