Last year in June we stayed at jasmine apartments which was fantastic. But the journey home at the airport was terrible. The one before that was horrendous to. I was wondering what the airport is like this year. We weren't going to visit this year because I got very anxious at the airport but am feeling I need my San Stefanos injection to make me get through the winter. We went to Lanzarote in June but it isn't the same as Corfu. If anyone can give me any tips on coping with Corfu airport or any reviews this year I would be very grateful. ???

Only just been back there ourselves after many away. The airport we had heard was worse than ever and we expected more of a problem. Coming in from the UK with hold luggage we expected it would take as long as ever and be hot. Neither occurred, they were much quicker and the place had air-con.
Coming back we did as we had done many years ago and went into arrivals to head indoors to departures. We were actually very lucky here as we were flying back withJet2 and temporarily their check-in desks were temporarily in the domestic departures, just next to arrivals. It took us all of 5 minutes. Ideal as the queues for the others were as bad as ever. We intended to go up to departures via arrivals and check-in there, I did look there and it is still simple to avoid the queues outside and check-in, I doubt it would have been too bad. However, security is another matter and it took well over an hour and a half to get through. A tip for you would be to do as we did, I queued and left the OH (who is not too good at the airports) with the cases in seats near the end of the security queue, which is near enough to arrivals to benefit the cool air-con. Both were through security not long after that point. Air-side was busy, but there was plenty seats available and the food outlets were not too busy.
Things may change as they are doing work there – HTH.

Thank you for your reply we would be travelling with Jet2. We have chance of travelling back Thursday at 21.10. Or a Sunday at 14.10. Don't know which day would be quieter.

Not really sure, but sounds like Jet 2 is definitely the best company to be with for the actual check in. I know Sunday is a change over day for TUI so may be busy :)
