Airport to Oia via Fira

Santorini Airport to Oia by bus

The direct answer

Travel from Santorini Airport to Fira, then take a second bus from Fira to Oia. Check both current departure lists and allow your own transfer margin because the official information does not promise a protected connection.

The current timetable lists Airport–Fira and Fira–Oia as separate routes, not a direct Airport–Oia service.

The journey through Fira

Read the two published legs in order and treat the change as your own planning decision.

Start: Santorini Airport

  1. Change buses in Fira

Finish: Oia

Schematic only, not a geographic map or a through-service timetable.

Allow time to change in Fira

This plan uses two separate journeys through Fira, and published connections are not guaranteed. Allow your own margin, find the correct Oia departure and recheck both legs on the day.

First leg: Airport to Fira

Santorini Airport and KTEL publish the Airport–Fira bus. KTEL listed the ordinary Fira–Airport fare at €2.20 when this guide was checked; use the current timetable for the departure.

Second leg: Fira to Oia

KTEL publishes Fira–Oia as its own corridor and listed the ordinary fare at €2.20 when checked. Use the separate Oia departure list rather than treating the first bus as a through service.

Plan the return from Oia

For Oia to the airport, check the separate Oia–Fira and Fira–Airport departure lists. Leave enough time for the change and confirm the last useful departures before setting out.

When the bus plan may not fit

A late or time-critical arrival may not line up with two current departures. The official sources do not publish a transfer duration or promise that the second bus will wait.

Take both legs with you

Santorini Bus is independent from KTEL. Keep the checked airport and Oia guidance offline in English, German, French and Portuguese, then verify the current departures before travel.

Sources and checking date

This plan uses the current KTEL timetable and official airport guidance. Check both sources before travel; neither lists a direct service or guarantees the connection.
