FAQs - booking Greece flights

  • Which other cities are reachable by travelers arriving at ATH Airport from the US?

    Direct flights from the US can get you to Greece swiftly, where you can explore a few additional cities near ATH Airport. Cities like Spata (4.8 miles), Koropion (11 miles), Pikermion (7 miles), and Paiania (8.8 miles) are close by and are easily accessible by car or bus from ATH Airport.

  • Which airport should I fly into if I want to stay close to sporting events in Greece?

    Sports enthusiasts from the US should consider using Rhodes International Airport (RHO) as their arrival airport when visiting Greece on vacation. This airport is situated close to several stadiums that host world-class and local games, like Diagoras Municipal Stadium and the Ancient Stadium of Rhodes. Staying closer to RHO Airport will allow you to visit these stadiums to cheer on your favorite sports teams.

  • Does the USO to GR0 flight route include any unique pet amenities?

    Yes. There is no need for passengers flying on the USO-GR0 flight route to worry about their dogs' safety when visiting Greece. The majority of US airports allow people to bring their four-legged companions with them, including JFK, SLC, and LAX Airports, which conduct international flights to Greece. The overwhelming majority of US airports that offer flights to Greece require all pets to be kept on a leash at all times.

  • Can I travel to Greece without a visa?

    If you carry a US passport or are a citizen of one of the countries within the Schengen program, then a visa is not required to visit Greece and you can stay for a period up to 90 days from your date of entry. If you are from a country that requires a visa, you can apply for an iVisa online.

  • Can I buy local currency at a Greek airport?

    Yes, you can. One Exchange is an agency that has currency exchange offices at both Thessaloniki Airport and Athens Airport where you can make such purchases after your flight from the US to Greece. Alpha Bank also has a full-service branch at Athens Airport if other financial transactions are necessary.

  • What’s the best airport to visit Corfu?

    Corfu is the northernmost of the Ionian group of islands off the western coast of mainland Greece and visitors can get there by flying into either of the Greek international airports and then taking a connecting flight aboard Olympic Air or Aegean Airlines from there to Ioannis Kapodistrias Airport (CFU) on Corfu.

  • I wish to visit the island of Rhodes. Which airport is ideal to use?

    Rhodes is the main island in the Dodecanese chain of islands in the southern Aegean Sea off the coast of Turkey.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Greece

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Greece flight deals.
  • Travelers with limited mobility should think about taking a flight from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to Athens International Airport (ATH) when planning on traveling from the US to Greece by air. At LAX Airport, passengers with disabilities, mobility challenges, as well as any other special needs can request special assistance, like medical and safety aid, wheelchairs, or baggage assistance.
  • Airport lounges are regarded as the ideal venues for travelers to unwind while waiting for their flights to different destinations. Most budget travelers who want to unwind at a pocket-friendly lounge before catching their flights from the US to Greece choose Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) as their departure airport of choice. Budget travelers can comfortably relax before takeoff in SLC's Delta Sky Club lounge.
  • From the US, parents who want to take their kids on vacation to Greece may want to consider flying on Delta Airlines from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to Athens International Airport (ATH). This airline provides continuous flights between JFK and ATH airports. You can travel from the US to Greece within the shortest amount of time possible by taking direct flights, which reduces the likelihood that your kids will be worn out before they get to Greece.
  • If you're using the SLC- Thessaloniki Airport Makedonia Airport (SKG) travel route and your aircraft from the US is scheduled to touch down in Greece at night, consider the possibility of staying in a hotel that is closer to Thessaloniki Airport Makedonia Airport. If passengers arrive in Greece at night, they can spend the rest of the night in one of the hotels close to SKG Airport.
  • The two main airports from which travelers who wish to book direct flights can depart from the United States to Greece are JFK and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). These are the primary US airports where Emirates and Delta Airlines have hubs from which they run direct flights to Athens' ATH Airport.
  • If you are taking a flight from the US to Greece, you will enter at one of two points: Thessaloniki Airport Makedonia (SKG) serves the greater metropolitan area of Greece’s second city in the north while Eleftherios Venizelos Airport (ATH), or Athens Airport, is your link to the capital, The Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean Sea in the south.
  • The island of Crete is the largest of the Greek islands and represents the country’s southern boundary. It has two international airports: Chania Souda on the western flank of the island and Heraklion Airport (HER) roughly in the center of the island. From there, it’s easy to reach the eastern flank of the island and the towns of Sitia and Zakros.
  • The Cyclades are a cluster of islands that inhabit the southern part of the Aegean Sea, including the famous Mykonos, Thira (Santorini) islands and Naxos. If you will travel there, you can get a connecting flight from Athens to Santorini International Airport (JTR) and go from there, but most prefer to take the ferry from the Athens port of Piraeus and island hop.
  • Mount Olympus separates the regions of Thessaly and Macedonia, so it makes sense that your flight from the US to Greece should terminate at Thessaloniki Airport. From there, the journey is about a 3h drive and there are several tour buses that visit the area.
  • The islands of Chios, Lesvos and Samos mark the eastern regions of Greece and are closer to the coast of Turkey than to the mainland. A flight into Athens Airport will allow you to get a connecting flight from there to Chios Island National Airport (JKH) or Samos International Airport (SMI) and travel by ferry to Lesvos.

I upgraded to first class only to find out that I still had no access to the sky lounge without a sky miles card or AmEx (something that should be emphasized outside of the fine print!) Also, no food or drink service provided during the flight, so I basically paid 4x more just for “free” checked baggage and a bigger seat. Not worth it.

Also, no food or drink service provided during the flight, so I basically paid 4x more just for “free” checked baggage and a bigger seat. Not worth it.

I appreciated friendly service from check-in, to boarding, to in-flight amenities! Attendants were accommodating and helpful. Thank you! Elaine

Delta was really good about being transparent with why we were delayed it’s just that’s the plane was really old and outdated and a lot of the comfort and amenities we know Delta to have did not shine through

Bottom seat cushion is almost non existent. Very uncomfortable seat.

Delta was great the entertainment was outdated. Screen was very small and didn’t work.

Flight did not have seat back entertainment and the wifi was iffy.

Pretty standard flight. Delta has a good selection of movies.

The WiFi has been awful on my last few Delta Air Lines flights.

The seats are uncomfortable, feels like a small seat pad on plywood.

The seats are uncomfortable and there was no power to recharge a phone.

Turkish Airlines apparently no longer gives you 2 checked bags allowance on international flights, so that pleasure cost me $165 for my second suitcase at the airport. On top of that, they damaged that very suitcase, which happens to be a designer one and part of a set - ripped one of the four wheels right off.

Pretty standard for long haul international flying. Food was fine, tv/movie selection was great, wifi did not work at all, crew was pleasant enough.

Very poor service. Not friendly and special food ordered but not served

Very bad from ISTACC leg of flight specifically the seats. These seats are for economy not for Business class. I suppose when flying to a third world country you can fly any craft and no one questions it. I was very disappointed for that leg of the flight. This needs to change.

Was an excellent experience I have been flying Turkish Airlines for 5 years and always will

It was good. Turkish Airlines is one of the best airlines companies. I like a lot to travel with them

Four of my family members was settled in a different seats. I paid extra $200 dollars for 4 seats just to be all together, but they settled us on separated seats. After a lots of time they put us 2 and 2. My kids are 9 and 13 . How i can leave them alone???

It is much better than other airlines but not the best for the price

I did not like the quality of the food and there was no snacks offered between meals.

Awful seats, poor air circulation. Smelled like poop for 3-5 mins after someone used the bathroom. Child screaming for 13 hours

The plane was clean. The staff was excellent. The flight attendants were very good. Enjoyable flight. Overall. The seats in the back are too small but, will always be.

Overall good flight. The pilots were excellent. It was a nice flight, but the seats were a little uncomfortable.

There was no air on the plane and it was very hot.

Flight crew was amazing! I don't like that the Polaris seats are side-by-side.

Not enough room between rows and food was gross. $160 baggage charge?! Never again.

Flight was 3 1/2 hour delayed with no credit or meal vouchers

Smoothly flight, pleasant flight attendants. I wish there were better food choices.

Everything was awful Flight attendant was condescending, rude and not helpful at all. Small outdated plane. No service, uncomfortable seats. Flight attendant was really the worst. He used hand gestures to communicate instead of words and whenever he used words he was condescending.

They need to improve their boarding process. Group 1 and/or paying first class passengers shouldn't be in the middle of boarding process

late departure due to some unspecified issue with ventilating the cabin. They got it running but it was FREEZING for the whole flight. I asked for a blanket but they didn't provide one. They could not turn up the heat. it was quite miserable.

Staff was great. Space in bathrooms was very good. Boarding went smoothly due to aisles. I would like more room in coach. 2 more inches would be helpful. Lost luggage was a big issue; more on the administrative side than flight related, but diminished the flight experience.

Good but entertainment system was not easy and very buggy

Actual flight was smooth but we were delayed 70 minutes. Were promised to make it up to us but were given no refreshments

Flight was cancelled and I got rebooked with anther airline. Also had booked a direct flight and got a layover.

Did not fly HOU to SAT as flight was cancelled.

Very nice. Crew was excellent and our seats had great legroom which we paid extra for so I highly recommend this option when flying internationally.

Zero legroom or space in economy. Flight was delayed into Munich causing a missed connecting flight and other missed bookings. :(

Not good. They charged an additional $70 to check a bag we had already paid for on line with Lufstansa

They gave us free up grade to a roomier seat.

A major problem at the Frankfurt terminal. You see your connecting flight is on concourse A and you see signs for A, but when you start to walk out to A, only then do you find A is in another terminal which requires a bus ride, passport control and customs. If you sit around in the first terminal too long, you can miss your flight. We made ours.

No fast track available, no organisation. Unpleasant boarding system at gate 20 at JFK. When giving feedback to the lounge team I was told to talk to the manager instead of taking the feedback.

The whole experience was great. The only improvement would be the entertainment selection

Flight attendant kept banging her cart into my aisle seat. Hard. Couldn’t lean seat back. Should be warned of limitations when booking seat

I will travel by BA only in future also. Only suggestion is they should give aisle seat in front near washroom for senior citizens

Economy extremely cramped. Dinner was not good. Breakfast was quite good. Crew was excellent.

It was good overall. Entertainment was ok, one of the TV screens had issue. Bit old plane but leg space was good. Overhead luggage had good space. The worst part was experience at Heathrow airport, it was total chaos.

Comfortable, pleasant staff, quiet, good entertainment, food, drinks. Better than American (flight back) when we were crammed in and staff sometimes indifferent.

I was disappointed with the quality of the food and the fact that I was not given a toiletry bag for an overnight international flight

I was disappointed with the quality of the food for an international flight also I wasn't given a toiletry bag which is customary in international flights.

Pretty disappointing. Paid for business class. It was burning up the entire flight. For a 7 hr flight, after the first few hrs. The crew disappeared. Poor service.
