The Corfu International Airport "Ioannis Kapodistrias", named after Ioannis Kapodistrias, a distinguished Corfiot diplomat and the first governor of Greece, is located around 2 kilometres south of Corfu Town, and half a kilometre north of Pontikonisi. The airport is idyllically situated on a small bay. Many airlines only fly during the summer to this airport and bring tourists to the island.
 
Our reporter Guido Bühlmann is an old hand when it comes to photography, he is already 86 years old.Here are a few pictures from his time in Corfu.
