Best Time to Visit

Prior to the replacement of the old airport, it was established in 1982. During this time, the airport's short runway of 710 meters was enough to accommodate small to medium-size aircraft. As the number of passengers increased, the island of Paros needs to have a bigger space to serve larger aircraft. In 2016, a new airport was established, with bigger runways and upgraded facilities and services. The new airport took the overall flight operations of the old airport. Upon arrival, travelers can make use of the available transportation that will take them to their next destination, either by bus or by taxi and take a trip to nearby cities such as the Agrari, Ftelia and Mykonos.
