Harexperience’s LGPL Astypalaia Island National Airport is a highly detailed scenery of Astypalaia Airport, also known as Panagia Airport, located on Astypalaia Island in the Dodecanese, Greece. The airport uses IATA code JTY and ICAO code LGPL, and is located near Analipsi, around 12 km northeast of Astypalaia’s main town, Chora.
Located on one of Greece’s most distinctive island landscapes, Astypalaia Airport serves as the island’s main air gateway, connecting the remote Dodecanese island with mainland Greece and nearby regional destinations. Compact, quiet, and visually unique, the airport offers a very different experience compared to larger Greek airports, with a short single asphalt runway, limited apron space, white Cycladic-style airport buildings, rocky terrain, coastal winds, and bright Aegean sunlight. The real airport’s runway is approximately 989 meters long and is oriented 15/33, making it especially suited to small regional aircraft and island-hopping operations.
