Travel to Karpathos

Karpathos has an international airport so it's as easy as pie to travel here with a non-stop plane. Previously the arrival terminal belonged to one of the smallest in Greece and the baggage belt was the shortest I've ever seen. A new terminal opened in July 2009, so you do not have to queue up outside anymore.
