Athens International Airport (Eleftherios Venizelos, ATH) is the country’s main international gateway and a regional hub for Aegean/Olympic Air alongside many legacy and low‑cost carriers, so fares can range from budget‑friendly to mid/high depending on season and carrier. The airport sits roughly 20 km east of central Athens; transit choices include Metro Line 3 to Syntagma (typically 35–45 minutes, fares often in the ~€9–12 range), suburban rail (about 30–40 minutes, similar cost), the X95 airport bus to the city center and Piraeus (usually 60–90 minutes, lower fare), or taxis (around 30–50 minutes, higher flat/variable fares). Pros: modern terminals, good public transport links and solid transfer options. Cons: it can be busy in summer and queues for immigration or baggage can slow connections.
Franjo Tuđman Airport (ZAG) is Zagreb’s primary international gateway and usually functions as Croatia’s main commercial airport rather than a long‑haul hub. It handles a mix of the national carrier and other European legacy airlines alongside several low‑cost operators, with more seasonal and charter services in summer. The airport sits roughly 10–12 km from the city centre, typically 20–30 minutes by taxi or ride‑hail and about 30–45 minutes by airport shuttle or public bus; fares are generally modest for buses (a few euros) while taxis can be noticeably higher. The modern terminal is convenient and compact, but direct long‑haul connections are limited and summer peaks can mean busier check‑in and security lines.
