Rare cantgetin Posted March 28 #3 Share Posted March 28 Normally, the ship ports about 6:30 and the earliest you can get off is between 7 and 7:30....the ship must be cleared by port authorities before anyone gets off. It is about an hour from the cruise port to the Athens airport by car. You might want to spend a day in Athens rather than risk missing your flight, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisingWalter Posted March 28 #4 Share Posted March 28 I would not book a flight earlier than noon from Athens. You need to get there from the port and that's about an hour away. Then security lines, etc... Maybe 1p might be better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monn_a Posted April 1 #6 Share Posted April 1 For reference, I had an 1145 flight out of Athens after the Greek Glow cruise, I got off of Resilience Lady in Athens with the earliest group ~730 (easy peasy disembarkation) I booked the bus to the airport via Virgin (8AM) and made it to the airport and through customs with plenty of time to spare. I was a bit stressed reading reviews prior to the trip that one should book later than 1PM or so but was very relieved that I made it. Definitely to save yourself some stress book it later but it's doable (as long as conditions are in your favor) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricklisanye Posted April 2 Author #7 Share Posted April 2 Thank you everyone! I believe the Olympics being this summer is the reason for all the trouble booking flights and the cost is double from what they should be! Greatly appreciate your help!
