Kefalonia International Airport (EFL) serves the island of Kefallinia in Greece, located approximately 5 miles from the city. The airport sits at an elevation of 60 feet above sea level, a relatively low altitude typical of coastal island airports.
Traffic through Kefalonia International Airport reflects the island's role as a leisure destination, with connections linking it to Northern Europe. The airport's flight profile suggests a seasonal pattern common to Greek island airports, catering primarily to international visitors traveling for tourism rather than domestic or business travel. This positions the airport as a gateway for travelers arriving from other parts of Europe seeking access to the Ionian Sea region, with international routes forming the core of its operations. Given its coastal island location and modest elevation, the airport is generally suited to short-to-medium haul aircraft operations connecting Kefallinia with European origin points.
