Corfu International Airport Ioannis Kapodistrias (CFU) to Corfu
Corfu airport is on the edge of Corfu Town, so a taxi to the old town takes about 10 minutes. A blue city bus also runs from the main road near the airport to San Rocco Square and the port.
Best for most people: Taxi. The trip is very short and the fare modest, which makes buses only worthwhile with light luggage.

Tips
- Planes land over the sea right next to town; the Kanoni viewpoint above the runway is a famous spot.
- Book transfers ahead in high summer if you arrive late; taxi queues can be long.
- For the island's resorts, change to the green KTEL buses at the bus station in Corfu Town.
- Ferries to Igoumenitsa and Italy leave from the New Port, a short taxi ride from the airport.
Common questions
How much is a taxi from Corfu airport to Corfu Town?
A taxi to Corfu Town or the old town usually costs about €12–18 and takes around 10 minutes. Trips to resorts cost more; for example, rides to Kassiopi, Sidari or Paleokastritsa are priced by destination. Use the official rank outside Arrivals, where fares to common destinations are often displayed.
Is there a bus from Corfu airport?
Yes. The blue city bus (line 15) runs between the airport area, San Rocco Square and the New Port for about €1.50–2. Departures are only every hour or so and stop in the evening, so check the timetable. Green KTEL buses to resorts leave from Corfu Town, not the airport.
How long does it take to reach the resorts?
Corfu Town is about 10 minutes away. Resorts such as Dassia and Gouvia take about 20–30 minutes by car, while Paleokastritsa, Sidari and Kassiopi in the north and west take about 45–60 minutes. Roads are narrow and winding, so allow extra time in summer traffic.
Can I walk from Corfu airport to town?
It is possible: the airport is only about 3 km from the centre, roughly 30–40 minutes on foot along the main road. This makes sense only with light luggage and outside the hottest hours. With suitcases, a short taxi ride or the blue bus is far more comfortable.
