Santorini Airport in Greece is uniquely located north of Kamari village. This airport is a civilian as well as military airport serving this part of Greece. This is a relatively small airport built to serve the local areas around Santorini. It has facilities to handle six civilian planes at any one time.
There are many reasons to come to Santorini. Holidaymakers love this Cyclades Island for its beautiful sandy beaches and sunny climate. Many tourists come in during the summer to get the best of tan while frolicking in the warm Mediterranean waters. Although the airport is small, it offers sufficient local facilities to accommodate the needs and expectations of incoming tourists such as car rental and public transportation.
Incoming passengers at the airport may come from a diverse range of cities around Greece. Flights from Athens come in regularly to accommodate business executives on business trips. Regular car hire would be waiting to service them upon touchdown. Local businessmen may also consider a car rental for day business trips to Athens as the flight from Santorini is only 30 minutes. Travellers coming in to this airport may consider local bus transportations to travel about but these would be quite inconvenient with the changing of buses at Fira to reach the desired towns.
A good car hire allows the traveller to take control of their travel itinerary while in town. Pre-booked cars can be made from established local car rental companies located in the town centre. Alternatively, personalized services can be enjoyed with the requested car waiting outside Santorini Airport for travellers. A car hire is much cheaper for tourists and locals who go in and out of town on business as taxi fares can be quite high. Friendly customer services with reasonable rental attract more rental transactions. There is always a suitable car ready to whisk the traveller away from the airport and into town in minutes. The rental procedure for a car at the airport is very simple and straightforward. Travellers can choose from a myriad of car models parked outside the airport, pay the deposit and sign on the contract before driving away. However, certain rental terms and conditions must be adhered to when hiring a car from the airport. Hirers must be of a certain age such as 21 years with a valid driving licence and a clean driving record to be legally approved to hire a car.
