01Airport Info

About Mykonos Airport.

Mykonos Airport (JMK) is the luxury gateway to Greece's most glamorous island. Just 4km from Mykonos Town, the shortest airport-to-town transfer in the entire Cyclades (approximately 10 minutes).

In 2026, Mykonos benefits from early-year runway reconstruction, now supporting heavier modern jets like the A321neo. This means more capacity, more direct routes, and better connections from European and Middle Eastern hubs.

The airport handles massive summer traffic with 12-18 daily domestic flights from Athens plus direct international routes from London, Paris, Dubai, and more. Luxury travelers can also book private jet and helicopter transfers from Athens.
