Taxis are available just outside the airport terminal, with the journey taking around 30 minutes.
You can also hire a car with British Airways if you want to get out of the city and see more of what Greece has to offer. You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support, plus you’ll collect Avios points on every rental.
