Most overseas flights to Europe are tedious. I try to eat a little lighter the day before to stay comfortable. Also I like a neck pillow and eye coverings. We've flown on many different airlines and out of a few different airports. This flight with United went smooth, no delays. Food could be improved and flight attendants could smile a little more.

Purchase one of the memory foam pillows you will not regret it. They provide one for you but it’s fairly small. Try to keep your personal item small so that you have as much room as possible for your legs.

FAQs - booking Greece flights

  • 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. This ancient and historic island is a mecca for tourists and the best way to get there is to fly into Chania Souda Airport in Crete and then get a connecting flight to Rhodes Diagoras Airport (RHO).

  • 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.

  • Which airport is widely preferred among travelers flying to Greece from the northwestern USA?

    Take one of the direct flights offered by Virgin Atlantic, Finnair, or Air Canada from Seattle Tacoma International Airport (SEA) to ATH if you're planning a round-way trip from the northwest region of the United States to Greece.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from the United States to Greece?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from the United States to Greece.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket from the United States to Greece?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight from the United States to Greece is likely to change within 7 days, so travelers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights from the United States to Greece?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional round-trip ticket. You could then fly from the United States to Greece with an airline and back with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from the United States to Greece?

    Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you all the options when flying from the United States to Greece up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. You can then pick the flights that suit you best.

  • What is the cheapest day to fly to Greece?

    Based on KAYAK data, the cheapest day to fly to Greece is Monday where round-trip tickets can be as cheap as $976. On the other hand, the most expensive day to fly is Friday, where round-trip prices are $1,086 on average.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Greece

  • Looking for cheap airfare to Greece? 25% of our users found round-trip tickets to Greece for the following prices or less: From New York John F Kennedy Intl $871, from Boston $2,028, from Newark $2,279
  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Greece flight deals.
  • 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.
  • 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.

My son’s suitcase was left behind at SFO and did not make the flight.

Seats were not bad enough and uncomfortable good legroom in the emergency exit row we were in, but we were forbidden to hold my grandson on my lap for a little while, and the stewardess passed us saying it was against regulations which makes little or no sense when you’re 36,000 feet. The food snacks were really bad. Tasteless tasted like wallpaper, but we’re supposed to be protein bars, and the announcements were all completely incoherent because of the noise of the airplane and the lowness and crackly nature of the PA system.. this was disgraceful. No one in our party could understand a word of what the captain or the flight attendant were saying —not a word! The landing was a little hairy in a pretty stiff crosswind -we bounced before the plane stabilized on the runway

Chaotic boarding at these gates, multiple gates squeezed in at the very end of a concourse, behind a restaurant. Agents gave up on boarding by individual zones. Flight itself was uneventful, which is all we hope for any more.

Unprepared to rebook a flight of people. Uncommunicative. When I received updates in the app it was well after the announcement in the hold room. Offered a single $12 meal voucher, not enough for a sandwich at DEN, for a 17 hour delay. No one was able to explain their meal or hotel reimbursement policy for this cancellation, just handed a card to call the Help desk. My previous flight went through several delays and was finally cancelled, without explanation. The customer help desk closed while there was a long line. I then waited in line for a gate agent almost an hour while simultaneously on hold and trying to text with a remote Delta agent. Communicating with the text agent was almost impossible; they could not find any flights that got me back to my original city before the following evening. Kept offering itineraries that did not get me back to my origin airport or involved additional layovers. In 50 minutes on hold, never got through to an agent by phone. Finally spoke to one of the gate agents who was able to rebook on a red eye that had only one stop and got me back in the afternoon the next day, rather than late evening. Later by email, Delta offered 10,000 loyalty points for the inconvenience of the cancellation. The crew on the red eye flight were delightful. I don’t remember any food or entertainment on that flight.

Flight team was great and we even arrived ahead of plan!

It was good delayed again but once on board the flight crew were very good the entertainment and wifi worked on this plane and we were offered snacks and drinks

The boarding agent guy in Lexington on 7/23 that boarded the flights to Atlanta is very rude for working in customer service. I know there were delays but he was dismissive rude and arrogant. Most native Kentucky residents are nice and very cordial he needs to eat a big ole piece of humble pie. I watched him be rude to several people and as much as he could of filled up a delayed flight to save you money and he was so rude to people it was ridiculous. Next no water or snacks on short flights is awful 1st you delay a flight then do not even offer water on the flight.. No thanks I like delta better but I travel ever week and to be treated like this might as well fly American at least they offer water and have better rewards.

Flight was delayed multiple time and for more than 1 hr. My onward flight from BOS to MCI was also delayed. These delays have caused me so much inconvenience and Delta does nothing to ensure flights take off on time. No one knew why the inbound flight was delayed and what was the issue.

Only issue was with seating. The economy fare we purchased did say there was no guarantee the three people in our party would be seated together, and we were not. At the gate, the agent told us more specifically, the fare we purchased meant we would be seated in middle seats only. This should just be made more obvious.

Another smooth and friendly flight. For a shorter flight, it was a pleasant surprise to see a decent snack and complimentary drinks.

Average at every level . Poor entertainment selection. Boarding was very poor and disorganized. Flight was late by one hour .

Spent over $20k on for business class tickets from DFW. They used a very old Boeing 777 with old Business class cabin which was unclean and stained seats. On a route they normally operate the modern Boeing 787. The cabin heat was set to hot for 11 hours. On the IST LHE route the business class experience got even worse. They operate an even older Airbus A330 where trip was falling apart, seat recline did not operate and the whole experience left us hugely disappointed. Next time we likely will shift to better quality product which stands up to their hype. Turkish need to relook at their fleet plans and not use their worst assets of perceived week markets such as Pakistan.

The flight from Houston to Chicago was delayed, causing us to miss our connecting flight to Madrid, losing our Rental Car booking in Bologna taking alternative travel routes to get to our initial destination in Pizza by the 15th. We got the notification of the delay as we were traveling the 3 1/2 hours from Corpus Christi, Texas to Houston Texas for the initial flight. The delays hauling luggage all over Milan‘s Central train station to catch trains to get to Pizza the same day resulting us arriving in Pizza at 2 AM leaving us no time to rest as there was a 9 o’clock checkout time the next morning. The first 72 hours of the trip with nothing but headache, a knee injury from the excessive walking and a delayed car rental replacement, which ended up costing significantly more.

We flew business class and it was impressive. So comfortable with delicious food and very attentive and polite staff. Will definitely fly Turkish airlines again.

To get to jet blue at JFK from any connecting flight you have to go through security again.

Amazing! One of the best kept secrets in air travel!

We fly Bussines class and we didn’t feel like it is. Out luggage didn’t arrive and we have to return again next day from our hotel to airport to get them. Still waiting. No information from Turkish airlines Very poor customer service I think booking through kayak it was wrong decision

Our flight was delayed for one hour is their a credit?

We had a flight from Ny to ist and ist to Athens. Our flight was landed late to the Istanbul due to weather conditions and we couldn’t make the next flight to Athens. Turkish airlines transferred us to Aegen airlines for our ist to ath flights and told us they will transfer our luggages. However when we arrived Athens there was no luggage’s and I was traveling with two little kids. This was horrible experiences. Our ath flights was also early morning and we had to wait until 5pm for the next flight with two kids at the airport and they haven’t provided any hotel or food to us. We paid hotel with our own expense and also for food. That’s was horrible experience. I am very disappointed.

It was a quick flight, and it was fine. The only thing was my seats wouldn’t recline because I was in the last row. It was a 1am flight so that made it hard to sleep. But otherwise it was fine.

Wonderful flight! The crew was good, check-in was good and orderly and the flight was uneventful and good.

Gluten free snack options and meals that offer both gluten free and dairy free.

The pilot was late so we didn’t take off til almost 2 hours late.

The SFO lounge closes at 12 midnight. My flight took off at 2AM

Not a bad flight but a long delay boarding and taking off due to the pilot not arriving on time.

The experience with United Airlines was excellent; however, the experience with Houston Intercontinental Airport (IAH) was horrible. Although our flight departed from Terminal B, we had to go through security in Terminal C and then get on a train for travel to Terminal B. Additionally, there was significant walking required to get to the boarding location.

Delayed 2 hours while stuck on the aircraft. If the luggage was properly loaded the first time we probably wouldn’t have been delayed at all

The international portion was good. Food and beverage options were good. The sustainable wooden eatery was less than desirable. Your Star Alliance partner ANA provided real silverware. I'm 6'3" & 198 lbs and felt cramped in the exit row. How can that be? Flight attendant all had a pleasant disposition which is always good.

Did not like that we couldn't complete check in on-line without providing pictures of our passports. Worry about identity theft. We had no delays and boarding was handled In an efficient manner.

United needs to figure out its Economy PLUS standards; its better than economy but that's not saying much. It seems like United stripped away all the basics for an international flight (such as In Seat entertainment) and repackaged some of them as plus. Would not fly United internationally again.

Lufthansa has a bag policy unique to Lufthansa. We all had a small carry on and a backpack (personal item) that we carried with us through multiple other connecting flights, no problem. With Lufthansa we were charged 80 euros each for the carry on at the gate, for this one flight. When asked they said they made an announcement… problem being that we had just arrived to the gate from a connecting flight and didn’t hear an announcement. While we were standing at the counter paying the ridiculous fee several other people were stopped, while countless others boarded with the same type of luggage and were not stopped. Crazy. Good news though, when we got on the plane half of the overhead bins were empty! After an already horrible experience the lady at the counter was also terrible, so that helped round things out.

Delayed over 2 hours. Bring your own snacks or prepare to pay. No entertainment and no plug plugs for charging.

I remember flying with Lufthansa many years ago, and it used to be an amazing airline with more technologically savvy and roomy planes, but unfortunately that isn’t the case anymore. The space between the seats is much smaller, which is ok for short flights, but definitely not for across the Atlantic flights. Not sure if I’ll opt for Lufthansa the next time, maybe just if necessary.

Boarding delayed 1.5 hours. Ended up sick because of all the delays and lines waiting around airport and boarding.

They failed to make sure all luggage made it onto the flight. I had to spend a week on vacation with no clothes.

No internet for most of the flight. Very narrow seats. Food was bad. Flight was nearly an hour late with perfect weather, crew offered no explanation or compensation.

Gate agent required us to check our perfectly legal carry on bags due to a supposed lack of overhead space. After seating, we saw nothing but empty space in our seating area. This caused luggage to miss connection in Athens, and we had no bags in Mykonos. Totally avoidable and unacceptable. My last U A flight !

I missed my connection. Lufthansa did a great job helping me get a new flight. My luggage arrived on the same plane as I did. That was astonishing.

Enough leg room, no drinks or snacks. Looked like they were very good with the children

Food was mediocre. In flight entertainment lacked live TV. Crew was fantastic. Plane very comfortable if a bit worn.

As I remember my last BA flight - mediocre at best. Uncomfortable with poor and minimal food and drinks. Screen broke shortly into flight so didn’t have access to entertainment either.

They gave away my business class seat. No explanation and no apology. Told me I had to take the downgrade if I wanted to get to India. Then no WiFi for 10 hours. Just ridiculous. We should not work with this company at Deloitte. They don’t know how to run a business.

ok. It's a short flight and it was delayed, hence the ok rating.

Would like to see clean bathrooms, especially the bathroom by the end of the crew flight the cleanest not the bestest thank you

Wonderful. It seemed so quick and the view of Mt Hood was really good.

It's hard to tell where to plug in electronics, and the port on my seat didn't work. Their entertainment system was down. Vegetarian food options were tasty. Friendly, helpful flight attendants.

Our flight BA638 was cancelled with very short notice. It was supposed to depart at 7:25am. We had left Chichester at 3:30am in order to make the flight, and we were notified of the cancellation while en route to LHR. We were told the cancellation was necessary because a plane had not been scheduled to be at LHR for this flight! We were rescheduled to BA636. This flight was supposed to depart at 11:00am but didn't actually take off until ~12:30pm. Consequently we arrived in Athens several hours late, missing out on half a day of our sightseeing time. We had booked transport with MyTransfers to pick us up at the Athens airport and drive us to our Hotel Adonis. I was unable to get a refund for this service because our flight was so delayed. They required 24 hour notice of pick up time changes. I instead had to pay for a taxi at the airport. I have tried to fill out a request for compensation online but have been unsuccessful. How can I get help for filing a claim?

They could do everything better!! From the rickety plane to the flight attendants, when American Airlines is operated by British Airways, their standards are lowered! It’s like Macy’s, operated by Walmart!!

It was ok but not at a business class standard No entertainment system available which is poor for a 3+ hour journey Food was ok and service was good though

Late boarding with inconsistent excuses. Bulk head seats were very small and uncomfortable. 1 tiny candy bar and a water were only food provisions. Food for purchase was unavailable.
