The KTEL Heraklion–Lasithi SA, in close and longstanding cooperation with KTEL Chania–Rethymno SA, is strengthening the connection between Crete’s two largest cities with daily Express routes Heraklion – Chania – Heraklion (non stop), offering even more options for fast and comfortable travel.

From Monday, 4 May 2026, the Express services will run daily, from Monday to Sunday, with departures at:
09:30 – 12:30 – 15:30 – 18:30

The EXPRESS routes with no intermediate stops have been designed to serve both residents and visitors to Crete, ensuring faster travel times, a high level of comfort and safety, and greater flexibility in travel planning.

This expansion of services responds to the increased demand of the summer season and confirms the ongoing commitment of both KTEL companies to upgrading transport services and providing better service to the travelling public.
