Rhodes International Airport (RHO), officially Diagoras Airport, is the main airport of the island of Rhodes and one of Greece’s busiest seasonal airports, located around 14 km south-west of Rhodes town. It handles very heavy summer holiday traffic.
Rhodes operates from a single terminal that is busy through the summer season, handling scheduled and charter flights.
Regional buses (KTEL) connect the airport to Rhodes town in around 30–45 minutes, and taxis reach the town in about 20–25 minutes. The airport has good road links to the island’s resorts.
