A summer-only gateway for the southern Peloponnese, Kalamata Airport (IATA: KLX, ICAO: LGKL) fills with holiday traffic from May to October and quietens down for winter. Seasonal carriers include easyJet, Ryanair, Jet2, British Airways and Aegean, while the Hellenic Air Force uses the field as a training base (120 Air Training Wing). No air cargo is handled here and there is no meaningful freight capacity. Shippers route air freight through Athens (ATH), about 230 km to the northeast and Greece's principal cargo airport.
