Best Time to Book Cheap Flights
For summer travel, booking several months in advance is strongly recommended given the intense seasonal demand. Shoulder season months of May, September, and October often provide a better balance of good weather, thinner crowds, and lower airfare compared to the July-August peak.
About Corfu
Corfu is one of the greenest and most historically distinctive of the Greek islands, having been shaped by centuries of Venetian, French, and British rule rather than Ottoman influence. Its Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, features elegant Venetian architecture, while the island’s dramatic coastline and lush interior offer everything from lively beach resorts to quiet, tucked-away coves.
Things to Know When Flying Into Corfu
The airport can become quite crowded during peak summer months, so arriving early for check-in and security is advisable.
CFU is conveniently located just a few kilometers from Corfu Town’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed old town.
Many international routes to CFU operate only seasonally, so off-season travelers may need to connect through Athens.
Car rental is recommended for exploring Corfu’s diverse beaches, mountain villages, and the picturesque Paleokastritsa coastline.
