Airport guide

Mytilene Airport “Odysseas Elytis” (MJT) sits on the shore 8 km south of Mytilene, the capital of Lesvos, on the road to the airport-side beaches of Neapoli and Kratigos. Named after the island’s Nobel poet, it handles around 700,000 passengers a year: a solid year-round domestic trade for the university and the island’s 80,000 residents, plus Dutch, German, Scandinavian and British summer charters.

Transport

Mytilene town is 8 km away: about €15 by taxi or €2 on the city bus. Molyvos and Petra are 90 minutes across the island (about €80 by taxi), so most resort guests arrive by coach or pre-booked transfer.

Parking

An open-air car park beside the terminal, from about €3 an hour or €10 a day. Lesvos has a large resident population flying to Athens all year, so it is busier than most island car parks around holidays.

Car rental

Rental desks are in the terminal with the cars beside it. Lesvos is huge, its sights are two hours apart and the KTEL runs a few times a day, so a car is close to essential for anyone not staying put in one resort.
