Yes, you can smoke at Mykonos–Manto Mavrogenous Airport (JMK) — at the designated outdoor area outside the terminal building, landside, before security. The terminal interior is smoke-free throughout, so plan to smoke before you go inside, or once you clear arrivals.

JMK is a small, single-terminal airport about 4 km from Mykonos town.

Before Security (Landside)

The designated smoking area is outside the terminal building, landside. There is no smoking permitted anywhere inside the building — check-in, the departure hall and the gates are all smoke-free.

After Security (Airside)

There is no smoking area of any kind past security at Mykonos Airport. The departure lounge and every gate are smoke-free, with no room, terrace or open-air deck reserved for smokers airside. A connecting passenger who wants to smoke has to leave the secure area to reach the outdoor smoking area outside the terminal, then clear security again before boarding the next flight.

Arrivals

After landing and clearing arrivals, the same outdoor area outside the terminal building is available for a cigarette.

Vaping

Greece’s 2019 anti-smoking law (Law 4633/2019) extends the indoor ban to e-cigarettes in enclosed public spaces, so vaping is not permitted inside the JMK terminal. Use the outdoor area outside the building for vapes as well as cigarettes; heat-not-burn devices such as IQOS follow the same rule.
