The Greek electricity distribution operator DEDDIE has scheduled planned power outages affecting several areas across Crete on Friday, May 15. These interruptions are part of routine maintenance and network upgrade work on the island's electrical infrastructure. Tourists staying in or traveling through affected zones may experience temporary loss of electricity, which could impact air conditioning, charging facilities, and some hotel services. If you are planning activities that depend on powered amenities, it is worth checking with your accommodation in advance to confirm whether your area is affected and how long the outage is expected to last. Most planned cuts are typically completed within a few hours during daytime. Carrying a portable charger and having offline maps downloaded is advisable on days when local outages are scheduled.
