Useful information for flying to Athens

¡Hola, Athens!

If you book one of our cheap flights to Athens, once you get there you won't be able to resist boarding one of the ferries that depart from the Port of Piraeus (one of the oldest in the Mediterranean) to the Cyclades Archipelago, jewel of the Aegean Sea. Paros, Santorini or Mykonos are islands that are just waiting to be discovered by anyone looking for a mix of beaches and nightlife. Special mention goes to the tiny uninhabited island of Delos, only accessible from Mykonos, which is home to one of the most impressive archaeological sites in Greece.

And that is only if Athens falls short of your expectations, which is difficult to imagine given its many attractions, from the imposing Acropolis, home to the Parthenon, which dominates the city's skyline, the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Plaka neighbourhood, the oldest in the city packed full of the charm typical of traditional Greece without mentioning the Agora, the centre of political, administrative, commercial and social activity in ancient Athens.
