  "connection_tips": "Kefalonia International Airport (EFL), also known as Anna Pollatou Airport, is the modern and efficient gateway to the largest of the Ionian Islands. For travelers connecting through EFL, the most important tip is to account for the extreme seasonality of the island; while domestic flights to Athens (ATH) operate year-round, the airport handles a massive influx of international charters from May to September. During this peak season, arriving at least 2.5 hours before your departure is mandatory, as check-in and security queues can extend significantly. Ground transportation to the capital city of Argostoli, located just 8 kilometers to the north, is well-supported.\n\nThe most economical connection is the local KTEL bus, which costs approximately 2 EUR and takes 30 minutes; however, be aware that the bus schedule is primarily timed to match peak flight arrivals and is less frequent in the off-season. For a more direct and private connection, authorized taxis are available 24/7 at the arrivals curb, with a ride to Argostoli taking 15 minutes and costing around 20 EUR. The single-terminal facility was completely modernized by Fraport in 2019 and is exceptionally easy to navigate, with check-in on the ground floor and departures on the upper level.\n\nWithin the terminal, amenities are of a high standard, featuring free high-speed Wi-Fi, duty-free shops offering local Kefalonian honey and Robola wine, and several cafes serving Greek pastries. Lastly, because the airport is situated in a coastal region, stay mindful of potential delays during periods of high winds or sudden Aegean storms. All major international car rental agencies have desks conveniently located in the arrivals hall for 'one-stop' processing.",

  "terminal_info": "Kefalonia International Airport (EFL), also known as Anna Pollatou Airport, is the primary aviation hub for the largest of the Ionian Islands in Greece. Following its privatization and transfer to Fraport Greece, the airport underwent a significant transformation completed in 2019, which included the construction of a brand-new, modern passenger terminal. This expansion has drastically improved the airport's capacity and service standards, allowing it to handle the high volume of international tourists that visit the island's famous beaches and rugged landscapes.\n\nThe new terminal building provides a spacious and efficient environment across two levels. The ground floor handles check-in, arrivals, and baggage claim, while the upper level is dedicated to departures and security screening. Within the terminal, passengers can find a variety of modern amenities including several cafes serving Greek and international refreshments, a duty-free shop, and retail outlets for local products and souvenirs. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the facility, and the airport also features updated restroom facilities, ATMs, and several car rental desks located within the main arrivals hall.\n\nFlight operations at EFL are highly seasonal, with a massive influx of international services during the summer months. Major carriers such as easyJet, Ryanair, and Jet2.com provide frequent links to hubs across Europe, including London, Milan, and Vienna. Domestic services are provided year-round by Olympic Air and Aegean Airlines, primarily connecting the island with Athens (ATH). Ground transportation is well-served by local KTEL buses that connect the terminal to the capital city of Argostoli and other island hotspots. Taxis and private transfers are also readily available outside the terminal, with the drive to Argostoli taking approximately 15 minutes.",
