About HER Airport

Heraklion International "Nikos Kazantzakis" Airport (HER) serves Crete’s capital with a compact layout of a main passenger terminal handling both domestic and international traffic; a secondary terminal and additional satellite facilities support seasonal peaks. The airport is a base for Aegean Airlines and Olympic Air and hosts many low-cost carriers serving popular destinations across Europe such as Athens, London, Berlin, Amsterdam and Rome, plus frequent domestic connections. Travellers can consult the online flight board for real-time arrivals and departures and should allow extra time during summer months when passenger volumes are highest.

How do I get to and from Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport?

Heraklion International Airport is served by a mix of options: regular city buses connect the airport with Heraklion center and nearby towns, taxis and ride‑hailing services offer direct journeys to the city and resorts, and many visitors use rental cars or organized airport shuttles from hotels. Road access is straightforward via the main coastal route; allow extra time in high season when traffic to popular resorts increases.

How do the terminals work at Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport?

The airport has a single passenger terminal handling both domestic and international flights, with arrivals and departures separated by standard security and passport control areas. Check‑in desks and airline counters are located on the departures level; domestic and Schengen flights use adjacent zones while non‑Schengen arrivals require passport control. Connections are on the same site but may require passing through security or border control depending on routing.

Tips for flying from Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport

Arrive earlier than usual during summer months when passenger volumes and queues grow; two hours for domestic or Schengen and three hours for international non‑Schengen departures is prudent. Have travel documents and any required COVID or health paperwork readily available. Baggage carousels and car hire desks are close to arrivals; watch for seasonal shuttle schedules and expect limited late‑night public transport options.
