"No changing facilities / extortionate prices"
For Greek standards, I’d say this airport is just okay. However, I needed to change out of a suit into more comfortable clothes and was surprised to find no changing facilities. I had no choice but to change in the restroom, which clearly isn’t designed for that — not exactly ideal for travelers needing to freshen up after long journeys. Then came the price shock: I bought a pack of Lays and a 1L Evian near Gate A5 and was charged close to €10. When I expressed my surprise (in Greek), the cashier casually replied, “What do you expect? You’re at an airport.” I pointed out that four packs of chips and two bottles of water would basically wipe out someone’s daily wage in Greece. I understand airport pricing is higher, but this was extortionate, especially for a country where the cost of living is significantly lower than much of Western Europe. A little more care for travelers — both in facilities and pricing — would go a long way.
"worst airport ever"
The staff is rude, the airport is old, passengers need to walks miles away to go to the baggage claim area. This airport does not look as most European airports but a 1970 Sovietic airport
