}}Kalamata International Airport ({{lang-el|Κρατικός Αερολιμένας Καλαμάτας}}) {{airport codes|KLX|LGKL}} "Captain Vassilis Constantakopoulos" is an airport in the city of Kalamata, Greece. It mainly receives flights during the summer. In March 2013, Aegean Airlines opened a base in the airport.[3]

Overview

The airport is located between Kalamata and Messini on GR-82 (Pylos – Kalamata – Sparta) and west of the train tracks on the Pamisos River plain. The runway is about 2.7 km long and runs from north to south from the highway north to the plain. The terminal lies to the east and is accessed with GR-7/E55/E65 (Kalamata – Tripoli – Corinth).

There is a military base of the Hellenic Air Force and an air-training department to the west of the runway.[4]{{Better source|reason=The citation is a newspaper article from World War II, this is not evidence that the air base is still at the airport 75 years later|date=May 2018}} The air base uses the same runway as civilian aircraft.{{citation needed|reason=Although likely to be true if the air force still has a base at the airport, there is no evidence for this|date=May 2018}}

History

Kalamata International Airport was opened in 1959. Charter flights began to operate out of the airport in 1986 and a new terminal was built in 1991. The same year Hellenic Civil Aviation took over as operator of the airport. In 2012 the airport was renamed after Vassilis C. Constantakopoulos.{{cn|date=May 2018}}

Accidents and incidents

  • On 16 October 1971 an NAMC YS-11 turboprop regional airliner of Olympic Airways was hijacked. It had departed from Kalamata International Airport to Hellinikon International Airport. There was one hijacker, who demanded to be taken to Lebanon. All 64 passengers and crew survived after the aircraft was stormed and the hijacker arrested. The hijacking lasted less than a day.[15]
  • In November 2001, fourteen plane spotters (twelve British and two Dutch) were arrested by the police after being observed photographing aircraft at the air base.[16]

Ground Transport

The airport has been criticised for the lack of public transport.[17] The only way to reach the airport is by car, taxi or bus.[18] A stop on the adjacent train line to Messini and Kalamata is not operational.{{citation needed|date=February 2017}}
