Police-manned Help-desks at Greek Airports to Assist Tourists
Tourist police offices have opened up at airports across Greece with officers ready to answer questions and assist incoming visitors in efforts to facilitate travel.
Thessaloniki, Heraklion, Rhodes, Chania, Corfu, Mykonos, Kos, Santorini and Zakynthos airports are currently hosting tourist police offices in their arrival area. A tourist police office will soon be opening at Athens International Airport.
The new help desks – manned by foreign language-speaking (English, French, Italian and Spanish) Greek police officers from the Department of Tourism Police and the Security Service of Attica – aim to support Greek tourism by providing assistance and necessary information to incoming visitors and tourists.
Holidaymakers or visitors can also file complaints or charges concerning loss/theft of travel documents/objects. The offices are operating in collaboration with the Greek National Tourism Organization (GNTO) and local government bodies.
