Search Flights from Kos to Kefallinia

Kos is a crowded island especially in summer although it is small in terms of surface area. A 24-hour taxi service can be used to get to Ippokratis Airport which is the only airport in the island. In addition, private cars can be rented from car rental companies by those looking for alternative means of transportation.

Taxi

Taxis, that operate continuously all day in order to ensure transportation is available in Kos’ endless energy, can take you to Ippsokratis Airport within 30 minutes from the city center.

Car Rental

In order to rent a car from Avis, Budget, Enterprise and Kos Car Hire companies which have a heavy demand especially in spring and summer, it is necessary to make reservation via internet or telephone in advance. You can take back the deposit by delivering the rental cars to the officials at the airport.

Airport Information

Ippokratis Airport, which serves Kos Island, has two passenger terminals. There is a police station in the airport in order to ensure safety at these terminals, and a first aid team to be able to intervene immediately in health problems. Passengers wishing to meet their eating and drinking needs can benefit from the restaurant or four different bars serving between April and October. KAE duty free store allows you to shop among items such as souvenirs, cosmetics and jewelry. In addition, passengers who use VIP lounge rooms can benefit from many VIP-specific services.

There is no public transport to reach the city center from the Kefalonia International Airport, which is a modest airport 17 kilometers south of the city center. For this reason, you have to choose between taxis or rental cars to get to the city.

Taxi

A local firm takes over taxi service at Kefalonia Airport. There is a chart, which is obliged to be hung on the windshields of the taxis working at the airport, showing the fixed fee information determined for arriving the city center and other parts of the city from the airport. When you hire a taxi, you will be asked about your destination and to pay the specified fare before the trip. Thus, the use of taximeters is trying to be prevented in order not to damage passengers financially. The specified fare changes in the summer and winter months.

Car Rental

Considering the difficulty to find a taxi at Kefalonia Airport and the advantage of having a private car in this holiday city, the usage of rental cars increases during summer. You can rent a car from Prima Motors, Kokolis Travel, Hertz and Europcar 24 hours a day. Those who want to rent an economical vehicle can book cars at the appropriate prices from the internet sites of these companies.
