Kefalonia Airport (EFL) gives a straight answer: there are no lounges - no airline club, no Priority Pass location and no pay-per-use room - at the Ionian island's gateway, even after its modern terminal upgrade. The airport runs cafes and standard seating for a schedule that swings heavily seasonal: quiet through winter, then wave after wave of European charter and low-cost arrivals through the summer peak. Plan accordingly - in July and August, check-in and security queues stack up around the midday departure banks, so arrive with proper margins and treat the cafe as your waiting room. Program members should take lounge time at their home or connecting hub. The island compensates immediately: Myrtos beach's white arc, Fiskardo's harbour and the Melissani cave all sit within an easy drive of the runway.
