Frequently Asked Questions

How long is the flight from Istanbul to Athens?

Total journey time depends on the airports and connections. Check the total duration of your selected service in the search results, and allow separately for connection waits and airport transfers.

Do I need a visa to visit Athens?

Yes — Greece is in the Schengen zone, so travelers on an ordinary Turkish passport need a Schengen visa. Sort it out well before you book your dates.

When is the cheapest time to fly to Athens?

April, May and October hit the sweet spot for both price and weather, and you skip the summer crush. Check current fares for your own travel dates. Compare one-way and return options using the total cost, including baggage, connections and airport transfers.

What should I absolutely see in Athens?

The Acropolis and its crowning Parthenon top the list. After that, lose yourself in the stone streets of Plaka — it's the truest way to feel the city.
