The Greek electricity distribution operator (DEDDIE) has scheduled planned power outages across several areas of Crete on Friday, May 15. These are routine maintenance interruptions to the electricity grid and are temporary in nature. Tourists staying in affected areas may experience disruptions to air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and other electrical services during the outage windows. If you are renting accommodation in Crete today, check with your host or property manager for the specific timing and duration of any cuts in your area. Restaurants and businesses may also be affected, so it is worth carrying cash and planning meals accordingly. Power is typically restored once maintenance work is complete. For the latest updates on affected zones and schedules, contact local accommodation staff or check the DEDDIE website directly.
