Araxos Airport → Costa Navarino

Araxos Airport (GPA), also known as Patras Airport, is a popular arrival point for travelers visiting Costa Navarino on charter flights from the UK and Northern Europe. Located 166 km from the resort, the transfer takes approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes — a scenic journey through the heart of the Peloponnese peninsula that many guests find to be an enjoyable introduction to the Greek countryside.

Araxos is a small, relaxed airport primarily serving seasonal charter flights operated by TUI, Jet2, and other holiday carriers. Unlike larger hubs, you'll experience minimal queues and a stress-free arrival. After collecting your luggage, simply walk through to the compact arrivals area where your driver will be waiting with a name board displaying your name.

The transfer route from Araxos to Costa Navarino takes you south through the Peloponnese, passing through the regions of Achaea and Elis before entering Messenia. You'll travel past rolling hills dotted with olive groves and vineyards, through traditional Greek villages, and along stretches offering glimpses of the Ionian coastline. The well-maintained national road makes for a smooth, comfortable journey.

Our drivers are experienced with the Araxos route and know exactly where to meet charter flight passengers. Since flight arrivals can sometimes cluster together, we ensure your driver arrives early and is positioned in the best spot for a quick, easy connection. Your vehicle will be cool, comfortable, and ready for the journey south.

All Araxos Airport transfers include flight monitoring at no extra charge. Charter flights are occasionally subject to delays, and we track your specific flight in real-time. If your departure from the UK is delayed, your driver adjusts accordingly — no phone calls needed, no extra fees. You'll be met whenever you land, guaranteed.
