Skiathos Airport ( JSI - LGSK )
Located north of the small town of Skiathos, capital of the Greek island of the Aegean sea, the airport which sees only a few daily scheduled flights to Athens Olympic Airlines the year, sees its operating explode during July and August. Indeed, this part of the island is very popular among vacationers. English, Nordic and Italian tourists are very fond of this destination to top charm. These preferences are felt in traffic observed that I will detail below. The airport is beachfront. The track of barely 1,500 meters lined with either side by sea. Given the lack of space, the small road from the airport towards the center and the small tidal harbor passes the threshold. The planes are visible only a few meters! Imagine therefore the sensations can feel the onlookers who flock to the edge of the tiny fence to watch the planes pass only a few meters from their head ... An attraction alone stand behind the reactors planes pushing full speed while clinging ... a real feast for the spotters, amateurs and curious! Let's return to the airport itself. It consists of a tiny terminal located west of an oriented 02-20 runway. Only two parking permit to park aircraft, so it's a real headache for controllers to organize arrivals and departures besides that there is no taxiways! Runway 02 is mainly used for arrivals and departures, making a movement "back track" far end racket. Question traffic Olympic Airlines operates scheduled flights over Athens in the morning, afternoon and evening through Dash8-400. It may be that due to a greater influx Aegean A320 is engaged on these flights. In July and August, the number of seasonal charter flights are operated mainly on Friday, other days are much quieter. Charter flights are insured by Blue Panorama, Meridiana, Thompson, Thomas Cook, Volotea, SAS, Tarom, Niki and Transavia. There is no cargo or military activity. Expansion work is currently underway to shortly accommodate more aircraft simultaneously parking and airside new racquet 20 will have more distance.
