Zante international airport is located close to Kalamaki, in the south side of the island. It’s only 4.3km away from the town of Zakynthos and just 1km from Laganas.
Unfortunately, there isn’t any public bus service that runs from the airport, but there are always taxis waiting outside the terminal, and plenty car and motorbike rental companies to choose from.
The official name of the airport is “Dionysios Solomos” and it’s IATA code is ZTH. It’s the 6th busiest airport in Greece, and during high season, every day there are decades of scheduled and charter flights. However, due to the endangered loggerhead turtles – “caretta caretta” – which lay their eggs on the nearby beaches, planes are not permitted to land or depart after 12AM and for the whole night.
