Aktion National Airport (PVK)

Aktion National Airport (PVK), also known as Preveza Airport, is the primary international aviation hub serving northwestern Greece, including the Epirus region and the popular holiday island of Lefkada. The airport operates from a single, modern passenger terminal spanning over 13,000 square meters that underwent a major revitalization and expansion completed in 2021. It acts as a critical infrastructure link, connecting the historic Ambracian Gulf to major European cities via carriers such as Aegean Airlines, Ryanair, and easyJet, particularly during the high-traffic summer tourism season.

The terminal infrastructure provides a wide range of contemporary amenities across its two levels, with the ground floor housing check-in modules and arrivals, while the first floor is dedicated to the departures zone and boarding gates. Travelers have access to multiple cafés and bars, alongside a dedicated Hellenic Duty Free shop offering local Greek delicacies, authentic olive oils, and regional spirits. The facility is fully accessible and offers free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the building, featuring modernized security screening points and specialized 'Fast Lane' services for those seeking a more streamlined boarding experience.

Ground transportation to central Preveza is exceptionally unique, as the airport is linked to the city via the Aktio-Preveza Undersea Tunnel—the only one of its kind in Greece—providing a quick 10 to 15-minute journey. Official taxi ranks are readily available curbside, and several major car rental agencies maintain desks within the terminal, which is the preferred choice for visitors exploring the nearby ancient ruins of Nikopolis or the white-sand beaches of Lefkada. Travelers are advised to arrive at least 3 hours before international departures during the peak summer months, as the terminal handles a significant volume of charter traffic from across Europe.
