Autobus
The KTEL airport bus
The bus stop is outside Arrivals. Buses run to the Fabrika station on the south edge of Chora, a few minutes' walk from the windmills and the old town. From Fabrika, other KTEL lines continue to Ornos, Platis Gialos and Paradise.
- Tickets: about €2 — online at ktelmykonou.e-ticketing.gr, at the Fabrika kiosk, or from the driver in cash.
- Timetable: seasonal; the summer service is frequent, the winter one sparse. Check mykonosbus.com before you fly.
- Luggage: fine with one case each. In August the bus can be full — let it go and take the next.
Taksi
Taxis, transfers and late arrivals
Many visitors stay north of the airport at Agios Stefanos or Tourlos. A taxi or pre-booked transfer is often faster than the bus to Fabrika plus a second connection — agree the fare or fixed price before you leave.
The rank
Taxis wait outside Arrivals. In July and August, with several flights landing together, the queue can take longer than the ride.
After midnight
The night tariff applies from 00:00 to 05:00. The bus may have stopped — pre-book if you land late.
Transfers
A pre-booked driver waits with your name and a fixed price. Villas and many hotels arrange this for you.
Flights
Who flies to Mykonos
Mykonos Airport handled 1.58 million passengers in 2025 on a single 1,903 m runway. Aegean Airlines i Sky Express fly from Athens all year (about 40 minutes). From spring to autumn, dozens of seasonal routes connect the island directly with Europe and the Middle East — among them London, Paris, Rome, Milan, Frankfurt, Munich, Vienna, Zurich, Geneva, Amsterdam, Brussels, Madrid, Barcelona, Istanbul, Belgrade, Bucharest, Tel Aviv, Doha, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Riyadh (airline schedules via Wikipedia, checked Oct 2026).
Passport control
Flights from outside the Schengen area clear passport control at JMK. Since 10 April 2026, non-EU visitors register fingerprints and a photo in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES) on their first entry (Hellenic Ministry of Foreign Affairs).
Via Athens
With no direct flight, connect in Athens: domestic flights are frequent in summer. Keep at least two hours between flights, and more if you change terminals or check bags through separately.
By ferry
Arriving by ferry at the New Port
Most ferries dock at the New Port at Tourlos, about 2.5 km north of Chora. The Sea Bus crosses to the Old Port roughly every half hour in season; KTEL buses run to the Old Port station; taxis queue at the terminal. On busy ferry days, a hotel pick-up saves a long wait. See which port is which.
Ferry arrivals
Blue Star and Seajets use the New Port — not the airport bus route. Plan a taxi or Sea Bus.
