About
About Kefalonian Lines
Kefalonian Lines runs one crossing in our data, and its timetable says something precise: Cephalonia to Kyllini, five departures a day, Monday to Friday only.
A weekday-only link to the mainland
All five sailings carry the same day mask — no Saturday, no Sunday. The crossing takes 90 minutes and runs from 08:30 to 18:30. For an island-to-mainland route that is an unusual shape; most such services strengthen at weekends rather than disappearing. It points to a service built around working traffic and freight rather than visitors.
Kyllini is the Peloponnese gate
Kyllini sits on the western Peloponnese coast and is the shortest mainland crossing for both Kefalonia and Zakynthos. From there the road runs to Patras and on towards Athens. It is the practical way off the island with a vehicle, and at ninety minutes it is a good deal shorter than the alternatives further north.
Plan the weekend around its absence
If your return falls on a Saturday or Sunday, this operator cannot help you and you need a different carrier or a different port. That is the single most useful thing on this page, and it is invisible unless you look at the day masks rather than the departure times.
Five sailings, spread across the whole day
The departures run from half past eight in the morning to half past six in the evening — roughly one every two and a half hours. That spacing is generous enough to absorb a missed connection on a weekday, which makes the weekend gap all the more abrupt.
No published website
We have not found a website for this operator, so the schedule here comes from consolidated transport data rather than from the company. On a route with a hard weekday-only pattern, confirm at the port before relying on it — there is no channel through which a change would reach you in advance.
