I have flown there either in turboprop or -once on an A319 about once a year since 2007. Most landings are from the west.

I am told it is tricky airport but this does not make it a dangerous one. On landings from the East there is procedure that is used by the Greek pilots and works quite well.

Going to an alternate; I have never seen it as a problem.
