Where is Aktion Airport?

Where is Aktion Airport?

Aktion National Airport, or PVK, is also marketed as Preveza Airport. It serves as an arrival point for people heading to Parga. Central Hotel, a two-star hotel, is about 66 minutes by car from the airport. The Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority lists Europcar and Hertz car-rental offices at the airport.

For a bus journey, distinguish the airport from the towns served by regional routes. The authority provides KTEL contacts for Lefkas, Preveza and Vonitsa, while KTEL Preveza has a timetable page for the local Preveza–Parga route. A published page alone does not confirm how to connect from the airport or when a bus departs.

Driving is the most direct option described for reaching Parga from PVK. The route passes through the Aktion tunnel and continues north on the national road. Estimates put the drive at about 65–67 km and around an hour or a little more. Traffic can change the journey time.

The route has a reported €3 toll each way at the Aktion tunnel, with no additional tolls between the tunnel and Parga. Treat the toll as subject to change and check the charge at the booth. The approach into Parga can be slower in August, so allow extra time if your trip falls then.

If you plan to drive, compare rental options before arrival and confirm current vehicle availability and desk hours with the rental company. Europcar and Hertz have offices at Aktion Airport.

A seasonal Lefkada–Aktion–Preveza bus passes the airport but is not timed to flights; the service information reports five daily runs and four on Sundays, without establishing a direct airport-to-Parga service.

The stop is at the main-road junction outside the airport, rather than inside the terminal. Confirm both the service and stop location with the operator before travelling. The reported fare is €4.50, paid to the driver; check the current fare before boarding.

For onward travel beyond Parga, Parga bus and ferry connections to Igoumenitsa may help you plan the next leg.

Bus routes and fares, taxi prices, tolls and provider arrangements can change, so check with the relevant operator. For practical travel details that can change, check the official site before you go.
