Sitia Airport — Crete Island, Greece

Sitia Airport (JSH) serves the eastern part of Crete, the Greek island, near the town of Sitia. It is a smaller, quieter alternative to Crete's larger airports at Heraklion and Chania, handling limited scheduled domestic flights along with seasonal charter traffic tied to tourism in eastern Crete. The region around JSH is known for its relatively undeveloped beaches, the Palm Forest of Vai, and archaeological sites connected to Minoan civilization. Because of its shorter runway and smaller terminal, JSH primarily accommodates regional aircraft rather than large international jets, making it a gateway favored by travelers seeking a less crowded entry point to Crete's eastern coast.
