On June 29, 2025, Greece's coast guard suspended sea travel from major ports, including Piraeus, due to gale-force winds. The decision was made to protect passengers and vessels amid severe storm conditions in the Aegean Sea.
Ferry services connecting the mainland to its islands were affected, with exceptions for routes to the Saronic Gulf islands. Authorities advised travelers to check with officials for updates on schedules.
Neighboring Turkey also experienced disruptions, as Adnan Menderes Airport near Izmir closed due to the weather. Flights were halted, causing delays, including a London-bound flight postponed until late Monday night.
