About this corridor

Flying from Bristol

Bristol Airport is the South West's main hub and one of the easyJet network's important UK bases, alongside Ryanair, Jet2 and TUI. The airport sits 8 miles south of Bristol with Flyer A1 bus service to the city centre. Most routes are short-haul European leisure — Spain, Greek islands, Portugal and Italy lead the schedule, with KLM and Aer Lingus adding hub connections to Amsterdam and Dublin for onward long-haul.

Arriving in Crete

Heraklion Airport is 4 km east of central Heraklion, the largest city in Crete. Bus 1 runs every 15 minutes to the city centre. The May–October leisure schedule is intense; winter capacity drops sharply but doesn't disappear. Crete's size means you can fly into Heraklion (HER) or Chania (CHQ) — match the airport to your accommodation cluster to save the 2-hour cross-island drive.
