About the airport

Athen Helenikon Airport (HEW), with the ICAO-Code LGAT, is a former international airport located in Greece. Situated in the southern suburbs of Athens, it served as the primary gateway to the country until its closure in 2001. Although no longer operational, it holds historical significance as one of Greece's first major airports.

Athen Helenikon Airport boasted a single terminal building and two runways, accommodating both domestic and international flights. Its strategic location offered convenient access to Athens' city center, making it a popular choice for travelers. However, due to the airport's closure, it is no longer an active transportation hub.

While planning your trip to Greece, it is important to note that Athen Helenikon Airport is no longer in service. Instead, visitors can utilize Athens International Airport (ATH), located in Spata, approximately 20 kilometers east of Athens. ATH is the country's main airport, offering a wide range of domestic and international flights, modern facilities, and excellent connectivity to the city and beyond.
